Rahul, In terms of Geronimo here are some docs that might be helpful (some info might be out of date):
1) Some basic GBean information - you will see/work with them a lot: http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/developing-and-deploying-a-geronimo-gbean.html http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxDEV/GBean+Annotations 2) Basic classloading and plugin information in Geronimo. http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/classloading.html http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxDEV/Plugin+Guide In terms of code you will probably be working with the following modules: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/geronimo/server/trunk/plugins/axis2/ http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/geronimo/server/trunk/plugins/cxf/ http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/geronimo/server/trunk/plugins/jaxws/ http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/geronimo/server/trunk/plugins/webservices/ I trust you to find the basic Axis2 and CXF info :) I believe both use WSS4J project for WS-Security (http://ws.apache.org/wss4j/). Axis2 has a separate project that provides web services security features: Rampart (http://ws.apache.org/rampart/). CXF has all the security modules within it (AFAIK). Hope this helps you get started.
