security context doesn't propagate in jboss scheduler

[gnuorg]

I wrote a scheduler class that implements Schedulable and put it into a .sar file. In the scheduler I called some 3rd party ejb component(deployed fine in jboss and I can acess ejb api with web app) which requires security. I used the 3rd party customized ClientLoginModule to do a login(), I printed out the pricipals and roles in the subject returned from the LoginContext. everything is there, but when I invoke the 3rd party ejb api, it complained both principal and role are null. Obviously the subject is not propagated to the ejb context. I read jboss doc(our company paid for it), seems the subject should be propaged automatically. Did I do anything wrong? thanks a lot for help. I am using jboss-3.2.3.

I solved the problem myself. I used the policy "client-login", and it works. seems ClientLoginModule is the way to propage security context. Hope it could be helpful for people having similar problem.

by the way, this security forum seems to be really inactive.
