hsaha,

What should happen (if your web app is session based) is the user is 
authenticated once in your servlet container.  This should occur when user 
attempts to access a secured url the first time.  After this first 
authentication, the user should not have to authenticate to the servlet 
container again.  As long as the session is the same.

In the EJB container, every request to access a secured EJB must be 
authenticated.  But, the first time a request is authenticated in a JBoss 
security domain, the username and credential is cached.  Then next (and 
subsequent) request from same principal (i.e. username) are checked to see if 
credential matchs the cached credential. 

Thus you should have one JAAS login for your servlet container, and one JAAS 
login for your EJB container.  Any more, indicates yoy may have something 
configured incorrectly.  Unless, of course, that is what you want.

hope this helps, cgriffith
