Description

It does not appear to be possible to secure webservice endpoints at the moment, therefore EJB session beans exposed as webservices will not work if they use the @RolesAllowed annotation.

It would be nice to pass the values specified in the <web-service-security> tag in openejb-jar.xml were passed through to Tomcat/OpenEJB HTTP container, and to potentially support WS-Security schemes as well.
