Rob- Yes. In ActiveMQ 6.x the JAAS realm for ActiveMQ and Jetty (web console and APIs) was merged so there is one password and group data store. (JMX is still separate— and is targeted to be merged sometime on the roadmap).
This change was announced in the 6.x release notes, but that web page needs to be updated.
