Christian Schneider commented on CXF-6206:
------------------------------------------

I just committed a small interceptor to convert the exception to a 401 
response. You can use it like shown below.
WDYT? [~nbertram] Does it work for your rest case too?

    <cxf:bus id="personServiceBus">
        <cxf:inInterceptors>
            <bean 
class="org.apache.cxf.transport.http.HttpAuthenticationFaultHandler">
                <property name="realm" value="PersonService"/>
            </bean>
        </cxf:inInterceptors>
        <cxf:features>
                <bean 
class="org.apache.cxf.interceptor.security.JAASAuthenticationFeature">
                        <property name="reportFault" value="true"/>
                </bean>
        </cxf:features>
    </cxf:bus>

> Currently we return a Fault with a AuthenticationException when JAAS login 
> fails.
> The proper response would be a 401 status with a suitable WWW-Authenticate 
> header.
> I experimented with turning the AuthenticationException into a 401 response 
> in the http transport. Not sure where to take auth type and realm from 
> though. I am also not sure how to distinguish basic auth from WSS Security 
> UsernameToken. As in the second case 401 is probably not correct.
