29.5. JAAS Security Manager
JAAS (Java Authentication and Authorization Service) is a standard part of the Java platform. It provides a common API for security authentication and authorization, allowing you to plug in your pre-built implementations.
To configure the JAAS security manager to work with your pre-built JAAS infrastructure, you need to specify the security manager as a
JAASSecurityManager in the beans file. Here is an example:
<bean name="HornetQSecurityManager"
class="org.hornetq.integration.jboss.security.JAASSecurityManager">
<start ignored="true"/>
<stop ignored="true"/>
<property name="ConfigurationName">org.hornetq.jms.example.ExampleLoginModule</property>
<property name="Configuration">
<inject bean="ExampleConfiguration"/>
</property>
<property name="CallbackHandler">
<inject bean="ExampleCallbackHandler"/>
</property>
</bean>
Note that you need to feed the JAAS security manager with three properties:
- ConfigurationName
- The name of the
LoginModuleimplementation that JAAS must use - Configuration
- The
Configurationimplementation used by JAAS - CallbackHandler
- The
CallbackHandlerimplementation to use if user interaction are required
