    Problems with different permissions for Local- and Remote-In

    ralle

      It seems, that's JBoss (Version 4.2.3) cannot handle different permissions for the local and the remote interface of an Ejb-Method.
      Here is my example.

      <method-permission>


      <ejb-name>SbExampleBean</ejb-name>
      <method-intf>Local</method-intf>
      <method-name>*</method-name>

      </method-permission>
      <exclude-list>

      <ejb-name>SbExampleBean</ejb-name>
      <method-intf>Remote</method-intf>
      <method-name>*</method-name>

      <exclude-list>

      ----


      <security-domain>ExampleDomain</security-domain>
      <enterprise-beans>

      <ejb-name>SbExampleBean</ejb-name>

      </enterprise-beans>


      With this configuration JBoss permits remote access to the Bean, but i want local access only to the bean.

      Is this a bug or is there something wrong with the configuration?

          Hi,

          please post the full snippet of your "method-permission" section. Wrap the xml snippet in "[ code ]"-Tags (see advanced editor for forum posts.

          Best regards

            That's an extract from the XML-Descriptor:

            <ejb-jar xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
             xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/ejb-jar_3_0.xsd"
             version="3.0">
            
             <enterprise-beans>
             <session>
             <ejb-name>SbExampleBean</ejb-name>
             <business-local>Komponente.SbExampleBeanLocal</businesslocal>
             <business-remote>Komponente.SbExampleBeanRemote</business-remote>
             <ejb-class>Komponente.SbExampleBean</ejb-class>
             </session>
             </enterprise-beans>
             <assembly-descriptor>
             <method-permission>
             <unchecked/>
             <method>
             <ejb-name>SbExampleBean</ejb-name>
             <method-intf>Local</method-intf>
             <method-name>*</method-name>
             </method>
             </method-permission>
            
             <exclude-list>
             <method>
             <ejb-name>SbExampleBean</ejb-name>
             <method-intf>Remote</method-intf>
             <method-name>*</method-name>
             </method>
             </exclude-list>
             </assembly-descriptor>
            </ejb-jar>


            When a local method is called, an EJBAccessException occurs. I recognized in a JBoss-Trace, that a "NOBODY"-Role is required for the principal in this case. That's not what I'm expected.


            Thanks Ralf

              Hi,

              to my understanding, the user has to be authenticated even when accessing unsecured methods, because you specifiy a security domain in "jboss.xml".

              I found a rather old thread, where someone tried to achieve the same as you do: http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3960447, but through annotations. Maybe you find helpful information. And maybe the limits of this threads are no longer present.

              Best regards

              Wolfgang
