I would change that statement to:

In Geronimo, we don't have use a JAAS conf file.  You could instead
declare and deploy security realms using a Geronimo deployment plan,
like many other components.

realms, though.

Basically, to create a realm called DatabaseRealm using the JAAS login
module DBLoginModule and the flag required, you could use a plan like
the one below.  Either you can deploy this plan with a JAR containing
the DBLoginModule class, or you could put the login module class in a
JAR in the Geronimo repository and then add a dependency on that JAR
to the environment element in the plan and deploy the plan on its own.

Another option is to add your security realm (the "gbean" element in
the plan below) directly to the Geronimo plan for a WAR or EAR or
something, and add the login module classes to that component (in
WEB-INF/lib or in an EJB JAR, etc.).  That way the realm would always
be deployed and undeployed with that module.

Thanks,

My application deployed under gerenimo, uses JAAS for authentication. The
login modules are picked up from a config file, example.conf.
Generally in other app servers, I just add the system property,

-Djava.security.auth.login.config=etc\example.conf

in the java execution path, and it works. But in gerenimo, it is unable to
locate any login modules.

The Error:
javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: No LoginModules
configured for example

File:
example.conf:::

example {
com.test.DBLoginModule required;
}

Thanks
