Running JBoss Tools with separately installed EAP on Linux.

Latest response

Our developer workstations are running RHEL, and developers log onto them with their personal IDs, with which they can open up Eclipse, load up JBoss Tools, and whatever else they need. We have EAP 6.2 also installed on there via the repository. This installs it into several directories (based in /usr/share/jbossas to begin with), and all owned by the jboss id/group, which the repository installation created itself. Our problem is that users need to connect into this JBoss instance from Eclipse, however their personal IDs have no access to the directories owned by the jboss user.

Is there a good way of doing this? We could have them use the jboss ID to run Eclipse (not ideal, as there will be other non-JBoss development), and we could also try to open up permissions, perhaps give their personal IDs group access (again not ideal). Anyone know of a best practice for
