Debugging a custom realm in WLS 6.1

Question

Hi all. I'm trying to find out how to debug my custom realm. I first implemented
the DebuggableRealm and put log.debug calls in my realm. I then set the realm.debug
property to "true" when I start the server. Is that it? The javadocs on debugging
are very sparse. I wasn't able to find a javadoc for weblogic.logging.LogOutputStream.
I also found a DebugSecurityRealm attribute in the ServerDebug element in config.xml
but am thinking this is old (from 5.X?).
Are there any other documents I should be looking at? Thanks!

Thanks very much, Utpal.
I still can't find the class (or even the package for that matter) at
http://e-docs.beasys.com/wls/docs61/javadocs/index.html
And that sort of mystifies me. Still, your answer solves my current problem.
I still don't fully understand the ConfigurationMBean
stuff as a whole, and how they get bound to a particular realm; i.e. Do I need
to write a MyRealmConfigurationMBean, and if so, how do
I bind it to MyRealm?
Note that the code I originally cited casted a BasicRealm return type to a BasicRealmMBean;
It's not immediately apparent why one is
even castable to the other, since they are two interfaces that
are not on the same inheritance line (I don't think).
Thanks for your time. I appreciate your help.

It's weblogic.server.Server class.
