hi , 

          thanx , but i dont think it is used for that purpose.
At this location 
               incubator-geronimo-1.0-M1/modules/security/src/test-data/data
i found the following files
                      
                    groups.properties  
                    login.config  
                    mapping.properties  
                    users.properties

the file users.properties has the usernames and passwords. So this
cannot be and at the same time geronimo doesn't store passwords
encrypted.The reamaining files  are self explanatory by their names.

     actually i am trying to port a small application from weblogic to
Geronimo and that weblogic app uses security in DD.

<security-role-assignment>
	<role-name>gold_customer</role-name>
	<principal-name>gold</principal-name>
  </security-role-assignment>


  <security-role-assignment>
	<role-name>customer</role-name>
	<principal-name>cust</principal-name>
	<principal-name>customer</principal-name>
	<principal-name>j2ee</principal-name>
  </security-role-assignment>

i just wanna know what are the corresponding entries in Geronimo's
openejb-jar.xml.
