                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4603
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: console
    Affects Versions: 2.1.4, 2.2
            Reporter: David Jencks
             Fix For: 2.1.5, 2.2


In production you want to replace the toy properties login realm with something 
else such as an ldap realm.  However the admin console has a hardwired 
dependency on the properties-login gbean.

We should make the reference from PropertiesLoginManager multi-valued and scan 
through it for properties login modules so you can edit any such properties 
files.

Workaround for replacing server-security-config with something with a real 
security realm is to include the properties login module as a dummy, not used 
in a security realm:

<!-- bug workaround -->
    <gbean name="properties-login"
        class="org.apache.geronimo.security.jaas.LoginModuleGBean">
        <attribute 
name="loginModuleClass">org.apache.geronimo.security.realm.providers.PropertiesFileLoginModule</attribute>
        <attribute name="options">
            usersURI=var/security/users.properties
            groupsURI=var/security/groups.properties
        </attribute>
        <attribute name="loginDomainName">geronimo-admin</attribute>
    </gbean>
