[jira] Updated: (QPID-648) Provide some form of authentication

["Matthew Farrellee (JIRA)" <qp...@incubator.apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-648?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Matthew Farrellee updated QPID-648:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: SASLConfigPackage.diff

Initial packaging of SASL config and default database

Moved make rules for etc/ into new etc/Makefile.am, and added sasl2/qpidd.conf. Updated qpidc.spec.in to package new SASL files, and require cyrus-sasl[-devel] for qpidd.

The default sasl2/qpidd.conf allows for ANONYMOUS and PLAIN authentication, and the default sasldb contains a single user, guest, with an obvious password.

Also, added an --auth-realm option to qpidd so that the broker knows what realm to look for the authenticating users in. The default realm is QPID. So, either users should be added to that realm in the sasldb file or --auth-realm should be used to specify the desired realm.

It is important to note that to use any default clients (qpid tools/console/etc) right now there must be a guest user in the realm that the broker is using. The default sasldb contains the guest@QPID user.

> It is required by JMS to authenticate users at connection creation time. It would be useful if the broker can provide such a basic authentication mechanism.
