Description

I tried to use JNDI security with OpenEJB - that is, constructing InitialContext with properties Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL and Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS set. It works beautifully, however when another InitialContext is constructed (first one is closed using Context.close()) the following exception occurs:

Caused by: javax.naming.NamingException: Cannot instantiate an IntraVM
InitialContext. Exception: javax.naming.AuthenticationException User
could not be authenticated: karolko [Root exception is
javax.naming.AuthenticationException: User could not be authenticated:
karolko [Root exception is javax.security.auth.login.LoginException:
Thread already associated with a client identity. Refusing to
overwrite.]]

Probably the client identity should be removed from ThreadLocal on Context.close(), or J2SE security (doPrivileged) could be used to hold the principal.
