Hi there,

  I'd like to enable JMX on Tomcat 6.0.16/Linux, export environment
variables :

  *    # JMX authenticate
      export JMX_AUTHENTICATE=true
      echo "Is JMX authenticated ? " $JMX_AUTHENTICATE
            # JMX password file
      export JMX_PASSWORD_FILE=$JMX_HOME/jmxremote.password
      echo "The location of password file of JMX  : " $JMX_PASSWORD_FILE
            # JMX access file
      export JMX_ACCESS_FILE=$ETC_DIR/tomcat/jmx/jmxremote.access
      echo "The location of access file of JMX  : " $JMX_ACCESS_FILE
            export CATALINA_OPTS="-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote
                            -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=$JMX_PORT

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=$JMX_SSL_ENABLED

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=$JMX_SSL_ENABLED
                            -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=$JMX_HOST_NAME

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.password.file=$JMX_PASSWORD_FILE

-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.access.file=$JMX_ACCESS_FILE
                            $CATALINA_OPTS"*


The console outputs:
*...
**Is JMX authenticated ?  true
The location of password file of JMX  :
 /home/mercy/workspace/website/etc/tomcat/jmx/jmxremote.password
...*

The password(/owner read-only privilege/)  and access file are existed,

  *me...@workspace:~/workspace/website/etc/tomcat/jmx$ pwd
  /home/mercy/workspace/website/etc/tomcat/jmx
  me...@workspace:~/workspace/website/etc/tomcat/jmx$ ls -ls
  total 8
  4 -rw-r--r-- 1 mercy mercy 160 2010-03-11 20:35 jmxremote.access
  4 -rw------- 1 mercy mercy 153 2010-03-11 19:45 jmxremote.password

  *

The content of jmxremote.access:

  *# Author : Mercy
  # Date   : 11 Mar 2010
  # This is a password file of JMX, whose format is like this:
  # ${USER_NAME} ${PRIVILEGE}

  mercy readonly
  admin readwrite*

jmxremote.password:

  *# Author : Mercy
  # Date   : 11 Mar 2010
  # This is a password file of JMX, whose format is like this:
  # ${USER_NAME} ${PASSWORD}

  mercy mercy
  admin admin*


  I run the JConsole to connect JMX on Tomcat after lunching it , it allows
to access whether there is an authentication info or not.



  Please tell me how to enable authentication, thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Mercy
