Jackrabbit JAAS login

[Nils Weinander <ni...@mogul.com>]

All examples I have seen of Jackrabbit security configuration use
the SimpleLoginModule. I need to use JAAS login (from Jetty for the
moment), with org.mortbay.jetty.plus.jaas.spi.PropertyFileLoginModule
as login module. My success is limited so far...

I use Jackrabbit 2.0.0, Jetty 6.1.4 and spring-modules-jcr 0.8. The
login module config in respository.xml is like this:

<LoginModule 
class="org.mortbay.jetty.plus.jaas.spi.PropertyFileLoginModule">
    <param name="file" value="src/test/resources/jetty/realm.properties"/>
</LoginModule>

When Spring tries to create a JCR session I get this:
...
Caused by: javax.jcr.LoginException: 
javax.security.auth.callback.UnsupportedCallbackException
         at 
org.apache.jackrabbit.core.RepositoryImpl.login(RepositoryImpl.java:1511)

         ... 44 more

         at 
org.apache.jackrabbit.core.RepositoryImpl.login(RepositoryImpl.java:1497)
...

I have run it in the debugger, but since I am not familiar with
any of the code, it doesn't tell me very much what's the problem.

Anyone else recognizing this? spring-modules-jcr problem? Something
missing in configuration?
