I have done it recentry.
# You may already solved this :-)

What I did is as follows:
1. configure Servlet Container and EJB Container
   to use the same security-domain.
2. define ServletRedirectSecure and its security in web.xml.
3. add authentication related statements in beginXXX() methods:
       public void beginXXX(WebRequest request){
           request.setRedirectorName("ServletRedirectorSecure");
           FormAuthentication auth = new FormAuthentication("usernam", "password");
           request.setAuthentication(auth);
       }
4. run test (as usual)

In my testcase, Context is set in setUp() method like:
      private Context context;
      ...
      public void setUp(){
          super.setUp();
	  context = new InitialContext();
      }


As show above, I don't pass a Properties object
in the InitialContext constructor, however,
this works fine for me with JBoss-3.2.3.
