This example is based on JAZN-XML security provider at the instance level.
1. Log into Application Server Console (ASC).
2. Click on your container you wish to use.
3. Click on administration link.
4. Click on the icon for the security task with a description as follows -> "Configure security providers, create/delete/view users and roles".
Here we will just use "Instance" level security which will enable this user we create to be used by all applications within this instance.
5. Click on the button "Instance Level Security".
6. Click on the link "Realms".
7. You will see a column called "Users" which will have an amount of users, simple click on the amount to go to the next screen.
8. Click on the "Create" button.
9. Enter the following.
Name - test
Password - test123
Confirm Password - test123
Shuttle Across "users" to the "Selected Roles" Area
Note: You can create your own role but you must make sure you set the check box "Grant RMI Login Permission". We are using the "users" role as that has been done already for us.10. Press OK.
So the user we want to use will be "test" with a password as "test123", with this in place we now must grant access to the JNDI context to the correct group so that remote users which are part of this group can access the JNDI resource. This is done as shown below within a deployment descriptor for each deployed application which contains JNDI objects such as a Data Source or an EJB. The file is placed within a META-INF directory of an EAR file.
orion-application.xml
<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'windows-1252'?>
<orion-application xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://xmlns.oracle.com/oracleas/schema/orion-application-10_0.xsd">
<namespace-access>
<read-access>
<namespace-resource root="">
<security-role-mapping>
<group name="users" />
</security-role-mapping>
</namespace-resource>
</read-access>
<write-access>
<namespace-resource root="">
<security-role-mapping>
<group name="users" />
</security-role-mapping>
</namespace-resource>
</write-access>
</namespace-access>
</orion-application>
As you can see the namespace-access has been setup to allow users which are part of the role "users" access to the JNDI Server-Side context for the deployed application.
So with a deployment descriptor added to my application named "pastest" and deployed, I can then perform a JNDI look up of resources within that application as the user "test" as shown below.
private Context getInitialContext() throws NamingException
{
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
// Standalone OC4J connection details
env.put( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
"oracle.j2ee.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory" );
env.put( Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "test" );
env.put( Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "test123" );
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ormi://localhost:23791/pastest");
return new InitialContext( env );
