Guys,
There is in fact a NetCrusader/EJB product
that which will be officially released this June.
It provides authentication, policy-based authorization,
and audit services for EJBs running under WLS and IAS.
It is all managed centrally with the same admin GUI
as is available with NetCrusader/CORBA and NetCrusader/Web.
The security infrastructure does support configurable password
strength, password expiration, and all the other features
you would expect and require.
The core product is indeed vendor-neutral,
but in the case of WLS, authentication services
can optionally integrate as a custom realm.
Please feel free to contact me directly for further info.
Apologies if this seems like advertising,
but a specific question was asked :-)

Hi Swami,
I suppose my question wasn't clear enough, let me attempt
to clarify.
I prefer not to implement the realm on my own (though Weblogic
provides examples on how to). Also, I would have to develop
the admin gui on my own, implement password expiry etc. I
have heard of a product called NetCrusader from Gradient
which does some of what I need, but is not EJB-ready yet. I
would like to know if there are similar products in the market.
The reason I mentioned Weblogic is because it should probably
fit into it's "realm" interface, but I think the core of the
product would probably not be vendor specific. I may be wrong.
Thanks,
Proneel.
