>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-5910
>             Project: Axis2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: robert lazarski
>            Priority: Major
>
> The are 48 axis2.xml file in source control it seems, and they all have the 
> same weak password in each file. 
> As penetration tools become ubiquitous, they are all finding the same problem 
> with these weak credentials in axis2.xml . 
> We should consider the Tomcat approach and just comment out the entire 
> username / password section, as that doesn't seem to break anything. It 
> doesn't, for example, break the happyaxis.jsp .
> Next step I suppose would be replacing all 48 files with comments, and 
> running the unit tests?
