We do have this exactly and I think is possibly a reason for the confusion. Here’s a thread from 2008, "Desktop app communicating with EJB" - http://tomee-openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/Desktop-app-communicating-with-EJB-td980332.html <http://tomee-openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/Desktop-app-communicating-with-EJB-td980332.html> Clients can login via the RemoteInitialContext parameters and have their identity propagate with their remote calls. The only change is that the user/pass could get applied at the http layer as well. -David
