Currently the app runs in a Tomcat deployment.outside of any app server. The web app now needs to be changed to access some EJB based business tier session objects running under JBoss in a different JVM. Given that the JBoss session beans have their own role/authentication requirements is it possible to somehow pass the Tomcat JVM JAAS results/status across to the JBoss JVM? Or is the only way to move the web app and Tomcat to run under JBoss? Are here any good reference pages that explain the main issues of running Tomcat under JBoss?

When the web app retrieves an JNDI InitialContext as a prior step to retrieving the EJB home interface it can pass the JAAS authentication identifiers into the InitialContext constructor as parameters.
