Hi there.
After much gnashing of teeth, I still have a problem
I have a client testcase, that calls a SB.
I want to use a LDAP server for groups etc.
I have a security.config for the client containing :

testLdap {
org.jboss.security.auth.spi.LdapLoginModule required java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory
principalDNPrefix="cn="
principalDNSuffix=",ou=People,ou=test,dc=lab,dc=com"
rolesCtxDN="ou=groups,ou=test,dc=lab,dc=com"
roleAttributeID=cn
uidAttributeID=uniquemember
java.naming.provider.url="ldap://arwen/"
java.naming.security.authentication=simple
matchOnUserDN=true;
};

Now when I run the client, I see that it auths with LDAP and then does the bean call, which then gives me :

java.rmi.ServerException: RemoteException occurred in server thread; nested exception is:
java.rmi.ServerException: EJBException:; nested exception is:
javax.ejb.EJBException: checkSecurityAssociation; CausedByException is:
