Is there any update on when CSIv2 will be supported in JBoss ?
It seems that JacORB 2.1 already supports it.
 
Thanks

Interoperable security for EJB invocations is not implemented 
yet. JBoss has security, of course, but not in an interoperable 
(CORBA-compliant) way.

The CORBA compliant way of securing EJB invocations is based
on CSIv2 (Common Secure Interoperability version 2), an OMG 
specification that our IIOP engine (JacORB) will support very 
soon. This will make it easy for us to secure EJB invocations
over IIOP. As Bill said, we are planing to do this for J2EE 
certification.

Note, however, that you will need CSIv2 support also at the 
client-side. Not all C++ ORBs support CSIv2. (I know MICO does
it, other C++ ORBs might support CSIv2 as well.)

Cheers,

Francisco
