#516 Investigate using JAASRealm
Closed: wontfix by cipherboy. Opened by mharmsen.

Closed: wontfix
Reopen Issue

Now that we are using Tomcat 7 and Java 1.7, revisit utilizing JAASRealm instead of Tomcat Realm to reduce our dependence upon Tomcat.

  • http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/realm-howto.html#JAASRealm
IMPORTANT:  If JAASRealm is tightly coupled to the JAAS
            (Java Security Model), this may not be
            appropriate since NSS has requested that we
            utilize JSS rather than JAAS facilities.
            If this is the case, could "Realm" logic be
            added to JSS instead of utilizing Tomcat?

Metadata Update from @mharmsen:
- Issue set to the milestone: UNTRIAGED

I'm closing this. If we wish to revisit it later, we can, but we're heavily dependent on Tomcat for other reasons, so there's little reason to do this at this time.
