    How to authenticate jmx-console?

    arabin

      I am working with Jboss 3.2.2RC3 and I am trying to allow authentication for jmx-console. Under jmx-console.war I see several files I need to modify.
      I have to uncomment the line
      <security-domain>java:/jaas/jmx-console</security-domain>
      in jboss-web.xml

      Also, I have to uncomment
      <security-constraint>
      <web-resource-collection>
      <web-resource-name>HtmlAdaptor</web-resource-name>
      An example security config that only allows users with the
      role JBossAdmin to access the HTML JMX console web application

      <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>
      in web.xml

      Also, I need to modify
      users.properties
      and
      roles.properties

      It is not obvious how I need to modify those files.

      For instance, if I need user user1 with password password1 and user user2 with password password2 to be able to access jmx-console, I need to be able to set JBossAdmin role for those two users.
      How can I do that? I do not know how.
