Let's look into using security manger base operations like doAs and doPrivledged to understand how to sandbox users as well. > Plus there's the whole problem of how do we manage the logical user session? What's the associatation with new contexts and users - also how do we protect from impersonation. > How do we set the admin password when starting for the first time. Do we just use the first principal and credentials given for the uid=admin,ou=system special super user account? These are all questions that need to be answered. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - If you want more information on JIRA, or have a bug to report see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
