I see that it supports roles and session context, but do not understand if it is tied to the J2EE container's security. For example when authenticated through the container, a user principal and role are available in the ServletRequest. They are also carried over and applied to any J2EE resource like transactions, datasources, EJBs, JMS, etc. through JNDI. So, my question: Is the sunRise framework tied to the J2EE security APIs? How can my EJBs be aware of the user name and role ? -=Ivelin=- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: For additional commands, email:
