Classloading issue with custom LoginModules and Principal implementation deployed in EAR
I am migrating a large J2EE application from JBoss 4.2.3 (and JBoss 4.3) to JBoss 6.1.
We implemented our own ClientLoginModule along with the matching ServerLoginModule and a custom Principal. I tried to deploy these within an EAR, along with a my-jboss-beans.xml, where the application policy is configured.
The EAR contains an EJB (J2EE) which is secured with this policy.
When calling the bean from a remote client, I get the following exception:

{code}
JBoss 6.1 is coming with JBoss Remoting 2.5.4 SP2 (don't ask me, why you can't see this on the stack trace).
I did some debugging and found out, that ObjectInputStreamWithClassLoader#resolveClass has not the EAR classloader configured. Its classloader is null why the base classloader is used.
I tried the same deployment with an unsecured EJB, passing a pricipal instance as parameter: no problem at all.
I event tried to configure a different classloading behaviour for the EAR, with no success at all.
Do I have to do some more configuration or is this a bug, probably in remoting?
Regards,
Bernd
