Class GenericAdminAuthenticator

java.lang.Object
  com.sun.enterprise.container.common.GenericAdminAuthenticator

All Implemented Interfaces:

JMXAuthenticator, AdminAccessController, org.jvnet.hk2.component.PostConstruct

@Service
public class GenericAdminAuthenticator
extends Object
implements AdminAccessController, JMXAuthenticator, org.jvnet.hk2.component.PostConstruct

Implementation of AdminAccessController that delegates to LoginContextDriver.

Since:

GlassFish v3

Author:

Kedar Mhaswade (km@dev.java.net) This is still being developed. This particular implementation both authenticates and authorizes the users directly or indirectly.

• Authentication works by either calling FileRealm.authenticate() or by calling LoginContextDriver.login
• The admin users in case of administration file realm are always in a fixed group called "asadmin". In case of LDAP, the specific group relationships are enforced.

Note that admin security is tested only with FileRealm and LDAPRealm.
