14.3. Standalone Realm Properties File
Overview
The default JAAS realm used by a standalone container is implemented by the
PropertiesLoginModule
JAAS module. This login module stores its user data in a Java properties file in the following location:
InstallDir/etc/users.properties
Format of users.properties entries
Each entry in the
etc/users.properties
file has the following format (on its own line):
Username=Password,Role1,Role2,...
Changing the default username and password
The
etc/users.properties
file initially contains a commented out entry for a single user, smx, with password smx and role admin. It is strongly recommended that you create a new user entry that is different from the smx
user example.
For example, you could create a new user in the following format:
Username=Password,admin
Where the
admin
role grants full administration privileges to this user.
