Hi A few months back we introduced some functionality to allow the client to authenticate using a basic auth header. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-1974. This was merged, but subsequently lost when a script was accidentally executed against the wrong branch, and a git reset --hard HEAD^X issued to revert the mistake - see this thread here: http://tomee-openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/Commit-deletion-td4680672.html.
Given that this was previously merged, could we consider putting it back? I have prepared a PR https://github.com/apache/tomee/pull/85, and will run the full test suite on it to ensure it a) still works, and b) the merge doesn't break anything. Thanks Jon
