Exception message propogation issue

[jain_anuj]

Hi,
I am using JAAS based authentication in my application, but if some exception condition occurs in server side login module and i set some message in the login exception, then i don`t recieve the exception message in EJB client.

Also is it possible to throw customLoginException in the server side login module so that i can show the correct error message to my remote desktop client.

Any help will be highly appreciated
Thanks,
Anuj

No, the current security interface for the authentication contract does not throw an exception on failure. It simply provides a true/false response to the question of whether the user is authenticated. There should be an accessor for any exception information so that it can be propagated back to clients.

Thanks for the answer. Can you provide some sample code or pointers on how to implement the accessor to propogate the exception information to client
