Hi,

With JBoss 4, is it possible to declaratively map J2EE roles defined by the 
application to groups in the operation environment as can be done with other 
appservers (WL/WS/SunOne etc) using their custom deployment descriptors?

I am trying to 'port' an app has about 30 roles that we have been mapping to 5 
existing LDAP groups.  After reading the JAAS HOWTO, and Ch8 of the admin 
guide, I am not seeing a way to achieve the same thing declaratively.

If there is no declarative way, would implementing a custom LoginModule that 
queries for group membership and then translates group names to role names for 
the Roles principal group be a typical way to do this?

Thanks,

Richard
