Username/Password Authentication with Talend ESB WebService

In this Blog post I'll show you how to use Username/Password authentication with a Talend ESB WebService (based on CXF) running inside a Karaf runtime. First with a UsernameToken inside the SOAP Header and second by using BasicAuthentication.

Karaf JDBC JAAS Module

In this blog post I will show you how to use the Karaf JAAS console commands and how to setup a JDBC module to authenticate against a database.
