Securing JBOSS installation
massoo Aug 30, 2005 10:27 AMhi,
I have followed the page http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=SecureJBoss for securing the jmx-console. my config files look like
the web.xml
<!-- A security constraint that restricts access to the HTML JMX console
to users with the role JBossAdmin. Edit the roles to what you want and
uncomment the WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml/security-domain element to enable
secured access to the HTML JMX console.-->
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>HtmlAdaptor</web-resource-name>
<description>An example security config that only allows users with the
role JBossAdmin to access the HTML JMX console web application
</description>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>JBossAdmin</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
the jboss-web.xml
jboss-web>
<!-- Uncomment the security-domain to enable security. You will
need to edit the htmladaptor login configuration to setup the
login modules used to authentication users.-->
<security-domain>java:/jaas/jmx-console</security-domain>
</jboss-web>
the jmx-console-roles.properties file
# A sample roles.properties file for use with the UsersRolesLoginModule
admin=admin
and the file jmx-console-users.properties
# A sample users.properties file for use with the UsersRolesLoginModule
admin=admin
after i try to login i am greeted with login prompt in which i type admin as username and admin as password. Now I get this error:
HTTP Status 403 - Access to the requested resource has been denied
