Hi, folks:

I'm trying to work out a variation of what appears to be a problem
previously encountered via JNDI/JMS and Tomcat. My specific
configuration has a little bit of a different slant, though. I'm
attempting to follow this route:

JSP->JAAS->EJB->database

Previously, I was able to use a JSP to retrieve data through an entity
EJB and it worked fine. When I started working with authentication via
JAAS, I bundled a .jar file with my security classes, including the
LoginModule-derived class that would be used to authenticate a user, and
included it in my webapp/WEB-INF/lib directory.

When I attempt to authenticate via the JSP, however, I get the following
exception:

Error: 500

Location: /scheduler/Login.jsp

Internal Servlet Error:

As I said, the org.sofbex.security.login.SchedulerModule class is
included in security.jar, which is in the webapp/WEB-INF/lib directory.
The jaas.jar and jaas_lm.jar files (supplied by the IBM JAAS for Linux
implementation) are also included in the lib directory.

I had written a main() method into the SchedulerModule class to test its
operation, and it worked fine, so I don't think it's a security issue. I
checked the supplied tomcat.policy file and added full security
permissions for the webapp directory and below, to no avail.

Was there a resolution found for this problem?

Thanks for your help.
