JBoss 4.0.5GA - EJB 2.1

I'm trying to implement authentication for my EJBs. Before I even start with 
LoginModules, CallbackHandlers etc., the first thing I did was amend my 
ejb-jar.xml to require a role ("SomeUser") when accessing methods of my EJB 
("TemplateManager"). Without changing anything on the client, I ran it again 
expecting to see authentication errors since there is no authentication, but 
instead the client ran fine, calling methods on the bean without any 
authentication. In other words, the  EJB is still completely unsecured.

<security-role>
  |     <role-name>SomeUser</role-name>
  | </security-role>
  | 
  | <method-permission>
  |     <role-name>SomeUser</role-name>
  |     <method>
  |         <ejb-name>TemplateManager</ejb-name>
  |         <method-name>*</method-name>
  |     </method>
  | </method-permission>

In my ejb methods, I do:

LOG.debug("Principal: "+sessionContext.getCallerPrincipal());
  | LOG.debug("isCallerInRole: "+sessionContext.isCallerInRole("SomeUser"));

which produces:

17:57:19,707 DEBUG [TemplateManagerBean] Principal: anonymous
  | 17:57:19,707 DEBUG [TemplateManagerBean] isCallerInRole: false

What's wrong? Why is JBoss ignoring the method-permission stuff in ejb-jar.xml?
