Java Forum / General / October 2007How to protect directory in JBoss/Jaas?
Hi, does anybody know how I can protect a directory/file in JBoss/Jaas? Since I am not very familiar with this, I would appreciate a detailed description. There are a few pdf files in a war folder I want to protect. So that the files can only be accessed with signon. Then I also want to use single signon to connect the login with a website. I'm thankful for any comment. On Oct 17, 11:23 am, pearl...@hotmail.com wrote: > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > I'm thankful for any comment. Read up on security constraints in web.xml. Basically you'd need to define a web-resource-collection associated with a security- constraint, and then add the role to auth-constraint, so that only the users with that role can access the resource collection (the folder containing PDFs..you can configure any URL pattern). http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/webapp/web_xml.html -cheers, Manish On Oct 17, 11:23 am, pearl...@hotmail.com wrote: > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > I'm thankful for any comment.

In the same folder where my pdf's are or somewhere in an ear file??? And which other xml files are necessary (e.g. jboss-web.xml)? And do I need to configure the login-config.xml file? > Ok, but where should the web.xml file be placed? In the same folder > where my pdf's are or somewhere in an ear file???

JBoss defines its own specific deployment descriptors, the location of which will be documented in the JBoss instructions. I'm not familiar with JBoss, but I speculate that jboss-web.xml goes in the same directory as web.xml. That's where sun-web.xml goes when you run Glassfish. Standard files like web.xml go where they always go in accordance with the standard. <http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/tutorial/doc/bnadx.html>  SignatureLew Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
