When you are using EJB endpoints the authentication is just being passed to the 
standard J2EE principal/role based security system.  So if you wanted to 
programatically make decessions the J2EE role/princiapal system exposes two 
methods, both on the EJBContext object: isCallerInRole(), and getPrincipal(). 
isCallerInRole() requires special security-role-ref tags to be made for every 
role you wish to test. getPrincipal() will return the username that was passed 
in the HTTP basic authentication.
