How to configure tomcatAuthentication in JBoss EAP 6?
Issue
- How can I configure
tomcatAuthenticationattribute on Connector in JBoss EAP 6? - I have an application on JBoss that sits behind Apache httpd which performs the authentication. I would like to forward the authenticated requests onto EAP 6 using the AJP connector so that JBoss performs only the authorization. This is similar to the issue described by AS7-1581.
- I have set up IIS with integrated windows authentication and isapi to connect with JBoss EAP 6. I want to use
request.getRemoteUserto return the user authenticated in IIS. - How to configure to allow JBoss to bypass its authentication and correctly populate
getRemoteUserandgetUserPrincipalfrom authentication information on the front-end Apache? - We want to have the authentication at Apache and the authorization at JBoss should happen within a login module / mapping module.Is that possible?
Environment
- Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP)
