I see your point. I was actually interested by a "fairly" secure authentication mechanism without having to require SSL. I have the impression that Kerberos provides that (you can securely authenticate yourself over a non-encrypted channel). But you are right; it might be too much work compare

Current implementation of SRP is not secure in a sence that someone who can observe authentication process can impersonate itself as a valid user. The point that I wanted to make is that implementation of secure protocol on top of RMI is inefficient compared to implementation on a transport leve

Thanks for the detailed reply, I appreciate. I think we are on the same page on most points (which is good for me, I am just a beginner in the security arena). Two extra comments. 1) From my reading of the Kerberos protocol (which might not be true for SRP, I do not know), the session key is s

You can use a client/server intceptor pair to encrypt the session key so that it cannot be snooped and used by another user masquerading as the authenticated user. View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3856415#3856415 Reply to the post : http://www

You can take a look at SRPLoginModule as an example of authentication mechanism that involves multiple client/server exchanges. So the answer to your question is Yes, it can be done. The real problem with this kind of implementation (based on RMI) is that it is either not really secure (as is th

RMI protocol is pure stateless. It means that every remote call should contain some additional information about the caller and its credentials, if we would like to support authentication and authorization on the server side. By using this information, the server side security interceptor and se

I did more research and it seems that on windows, using the Microsoft Security Support Provider Interface, I could achieve a single sign-on mechanism transparently using NTLM (Windows NT domain) or Kerberos (Windows 2000/2003 domain). But (of course there is a but), the authentication mechanis

Thanks for the answer. I did not look at the SRPLoginModule before. One good thing is that it seems that this multiple client/server exchanged can be achieved ?just? by creating special login modules (and a supporting MBean), so it is not ?too? intrusive in the JBossSX framework. I am a little pu

I did quite a few searches without a lot of success. I am still wondering how to configure the NTLoginModule with JBoss. Here some of my dilemma: 1) Should I configure the NTLogingModule both on my client (EJB client) and server? 2) Ideally, I'd like to configure it, for sure, on the client: the
