WLS5.1 SP8: Using RDBMS Realm

Hi All,
I've hacked the rdbmsrealm example from the standard WLS5.1 install to use
the schema in my Oracle 8.1.6 database instread of the cloudscape db, and
everything is fine. However...
I'm a little in the dark about how much interaction my EJBs should have with
the realm? I initially had a bean which controlled user creation by
populating the same database table that is now mapped to by my
realm.properties. Should I now delegate the user creation to the realm
classes instead of my bean?
I've looked through what I think is all the documentation, but still cannot
really find the "how is it used" information I require.

Thanks in advance.

The 'nice' way to do what you want is to have your realm implement
the ManageableRealm interface and call those methods instead of
changing the database directly from the Bean.
Also make sure your realm has a way to refresh it's cache (if you
use one) when Users/Groups/ACLs are added/changed in your underlying
data store.

Disscuss of using RDBMS Realm

Hi,
Now maybe eveyone knows that the RDBMS Realm provided by weblogic 6.0 isn't production
ready, and miss some functions, for examples, change password, or add group no.
It is suprised for me that weblogic didn't support these basic functions of RDBMSRealm
and didn't provide suitable documentation for implementing this RDBMS Realm.
So I ask for help that if everyone know how to implement one function: changeCredential.
I know the weblogic.management.configuration.Uer object has this method (User.changeCredential(oldPass,
newPass)). I know I have to provide one additional database schema for updating
user password. I know I should add a method in the RDBMSDelegate and RDBMSRealm
classes. But I don't the suitable method signature, and couldn't find internal
method call when the user click the "change" button changing password in the Console.
Thank you very much for any idea or help. Also I'd like to deeply discuss other
security issues.
Is any project use the RDBMS realm?
By the way, if anyone try to directly update the database tables as a means to
implement this issues. I have tried this approach, and it seems work fine except
for some catching delay. Can anyone tell me if this is an effective method?
Thx

This RDBMS Realm issue is really bother me too. I was wondering if anyone use the
RDBMS Realm for production. it is difficult to find what the architecture the
RealmMBean object and RealmManager is. Any idea let me know. Good luck.

WLS5.1 SP_9 RDBMS Realm problem

Hi all,
I am trying to configure the RDBMS realm examples that come with weblogic.
I am getting an error saying the Table Users was not found.
I created my own simple java class to check if the parameters from
rdbmsrealm.properties are working fine, they are. Then why is weblogic not
able to find the USERS table, where is it looking for this table.
Any Help is highly appreciated.

Hi all,
Never Mind, I got it working. A couple of lines down the property lines,
the Cloudscape URL was uncommented and hence the webloigc server was looking
the USERS table in cloudscape instead of Oracle where I created them.
I figured this out by modifying the LoadDDL,java and asking it to print the
URL and other details that it read from the rdbmsldaprealm.properties file.
Thank you all.

Using RDBMS Realm with JSP, again

I submitted this post using the web interface after I "asked Bea" and now it
seems like I'm a total newbie :) So I repost to make it more readable..
Hi,
I am fairly new to J2EE and I am trying to figure out how I can apply the
RDMSRealm to restrict access to jsp files
Do I use ACL's in the database to restrict access to jsp's or,
Do I use the web.xml deployment descriptor in the a similar fashion as the
Gold_customer in the petstore,
What is the difference?
Does anyone know about a nice example?
Sincerely,
ilya

We have used the <security-constraint> tags in web.xml. This tag specifies which
'security roles' has access to specific resource collection (e.g. one or more
servlets or JSPs). The 'security roles' are then mapped in weblogic.xml to one
ore more groups and/or users as defined in the group and user tables in the RDBMS.

Simen R.

How to use RDBMS Realm in Weblogic Commerce Server?

Hi All,
Same as the subject.
Thx
Ray

You should read the security information in the Servlet 2.2 specification
that WL 5.1 implements:
http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html
Chapter 11 deals with declarative and programmatic security, and includes a
section on roles:
11.4 Roles
A role is an abstract logical grouping of users that is defined by the
Application Developer or
Assembler. When the application is deployed, these roles are mapped by a
Deployer to security
identities, such as principals or groups, in the runtime environment.
A servlet container enforces declarative or programmatic security for the
principal associated with
an incoming request based on the security attributes of that calling
principal. For example,
1. When a deployer has mapped a security role to a user group in the
operational environment. The
user group to which the calling principal belongs is retrieved from its
security attributes. If the
principal's user group matches the user group in the operational environment
that the security
role has been mapped to, the principal is in the security role.
2. When a deployer has mapped a security role to a principal name in a
security policy domain, the
principal name of the calling principal is retrieved from its security
attributes. If the principal is
the same as the principal to which the security role was mapped, the calling
principal is in the
security role.

Is RDBMS Realm industrial-strength?

I can see that several people are using RDBMS Realm, which started out as an
example. Is the version shipped with WLS 6.0 reliable and robust? Is it
suitable for a commercial application?

The RDBMS Realm shipped with WLS is a sample.
It is not industrial strength. For example,
the schema is string based and pretty slow.
Also, it doesn't support adding new groups or
acls via the console.

Problem creating user in RDBMS realm Using com.bea.wlpi.rdbmsrealm.RDBMSRealm

Hi,
I am currently using WLI 2.0 SP2 installation. Here is a very unusual thing I
noticed. Can somebody tell me what is going on ???
1 : I have set up the security realm as indicated in the config.xml file. As far
as I understand, the caching realm entry has attribute pointing to the wlpiRDBMSRealm,
which is a RDBMS implementation from the WLI 2.0 SP2 distribution.
2: I start the server, open the WLS console, and create a new user through the
console. I get no error message and it seems to work fine. ( I also click on the
save it to database link, and it returns with msg that cache is refreshed ).
3: I see an entry in the fileRealm.properties file, but no record is inserted
in the WLSUSER table in the database.
Since the RDBMS realm (from WLI distribution) is defined as basic
realm implementation, should it not insert entry into the database, instead of
the file realm.
Is this a general problem ( any RDBMS realm ) or is it specific to the WLI ?
Is there anything that I have not configured here that is causing this behavior
Is it just refreshing the cache instead of inserting record in DB ?
Why should it insert entry into fileRealm.properties ?
Thanks,

Creating New Users for RDBMS realm

I am currently creating new users in the RDBMS realm
by an EJB that will insert into the "Users" table. Is this
the correct way to create users or should I be calling
methods on classes in examples.security.RDBMSRealm?
Thanks
Bill.

Thanks a lot for the guideline.
I can able to create multiple users using Import option of the user administration but i have one more question regarding the same.
What about the password setting of these newly created users. Or can the set the password field in test file?? Because when we export the user, it is not showing any Password field.
Thanks & Regards,

[Fwd: Re: rdbms realm and connection pool]

Hi,
One reason why I would like to use the connection pool for the RDBMS
realm is because there is the retry machanism built into the connection
pool. With this retry, I don't need to re-start WebLogic if the DB
server is somehow re-started. With the current implementation, all the
connections maintained by the realm will become invalid if the DB server
has been restarted independently.

I believe not- the realm restricts access to connection pools to those
who
are allowed it, so if the realm needs the connection pool to start up,
and
you can't open the connection pool without the realm then you have a bit
of
a no-chicken and no-egg situation, which is I believe one of the reasons
why
there is no use of connection pools, ejbs, jndi, servlets etc. in the
realm
(along with other reasons, like why would it be provided with a servlet)
The delegate pool acts somewhat similarly to a connection pool, and can
even
use the same database, so I'm not sure what the advantage would be

Example of RDBMS Realm

Hi,
I have just started out with EJB & weblogic security. I want to make a RDBMS realm in weblogic that connects to oracle dBase. Since I am new to security, I was wondering if anyone out there knew what fields would be added to a table that manages user?. Also how does a table manage ACLs? And last but not least, I noticed that when I was creating a RDBMS realm in weblogic console there is a tab that mentions that I have to write schema properties...what is this and what do I place in it. I have read all of the weblogic docs and there is nothing that addresses theses questions. I would really appreciate any help I can get.
Thank you,
Jay.
P.S I am using weblogic 6.0 with sp1

Is this a continuation of http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=60&thread=159878

Refreshing the RDBMS Realm

I am using the RDBMS Realm that comes with Weblogic 6.0.
We have created ejbs to create and insert our users and group members into
the
tables that the RDBMS Realm reads from .
The problem is occasiounly the caching realm gets out of date. When a user
tries
to access a secured resource the attempts fails. After a few more attempts
the
cache will refresh itself and the access works fine.
When I make changes to my user data how can I programmatically tell the
caching
realm to refresh itself. (The refresh through the console will not help me
here).
...Or should I re-think the way I am creating and updating user data, i.e.
should I
only be doing this through the Realm class?
Thanks

WL51: Custom RDBMS realm interctions with CachingRealm

I think I partially understand the interactions between a CachingRealm and a
custom RDBMS realm (extending from ManageableRealm->AbstractListableRealm).
One thing that confuses me is how to deal with FlatGroups that contain other
groups.
Suppose I use the first constructor of FlatGroup which defers the loading of
members until a method is invoked. When my root group, "everyone" (of which
all other groups ultimately belong to), is called to test membership of a
user, each level in the group tree will be successively loaded since the
members weren't pre-loaded. This sounds like it could be terribly slow,
depending on the depth and width of the group tree.
One optimization being considered is to pre-load each group with its
immediate members. As each child group is added to its parent, it would
recursively be adding its children. Thus, "everyone" would have a full tree
of groups inside of it. However, havign been ecplitily loaded by the custom
realm, they weren't pulled through the cache. The entire tree is present,
but not accessible except through the "everyone" group.
Is there a way to load these groups into the cache pro-actively so that the
loading of a group and its children can be optimized (perhaps even using a
connect by, if not using at least a single database call)?
Regards,
Brian.

Hi Narin,
I seem to have forgotten to mention that the problem got fixed when I set getGroupNewStatement
to true.

Have you taken the RDBMSRealm example that comes with weblogic? If thats
the case, that example doesn't implement Group related functionality
as
pointed out by many posts earlier on this newsgroup. You need to provide
that implementation on your own.

Hi,
I tried creating rdbms realm in mydomain.
I am able to see the rdbms realm users in the console when I clickon
users.
I am not able to see the new groups or new members in old groups whenI
click
groups. I can only see the old groups' entries.
When I click on ACL I get the following
weblogic.management.configuration.RealmException: RealmManager.listAcls-
with
nested exception: [security.rdbmsrealm.RDBMSException:RDBMSEnumeration.nextElement
failed - with nested exception: [java.sql.SQLException: ResultSet has
already>> been closed] atweblogic.management.configuration.RealmManager.listAcls(RealmManager.java:20
