I am experiencing a similar problem to the one outlined below.
A user will log in using a servlet driven form. When calling a session bean
for the first time, the resident servlet passes the username 'guest' instead
of the proper username and password as indicated in the principals and
credentials.
I have also been informed that orion will cache the username and password
unless a certain property is set. The property, as I was told, is
"dedicated.connection" and it must be set to "true" however, this does not
seem to work.
Any suggestions or help?

Subject: RP: How to recover from incorrect user password
Sorry, I forgot to attach the stacktrace.
Hello,
I want to force the user to enter a username/password when using the
application. When the application creates a new InitialContext, Orion
prompts for a username/password. However, if the user enters an
incorrect password, Orion correctly throws a Security exception. When
the application attempts the process again, Orion does not prompt for a
username/password but immediately throws a SecurityException. Is this a
bug?
On a related note, after obtaining an InitialContext, if the application
closes it, and then tries to create another InitialContext, it gets a
NPE. Is this related to the problem described above?
Here's the stacktrace:
java.lang.NullPointerException:
