without modification.
- When WSIF is run under a J2EE container, port implementations can use
the security context to pass on security tokens or credentials as necessary.
- WSIF implementations can automatically convert J2EE security context into
appropriate context for onward services.
For WSIF to interact effectively with the WebSphere Application
Server security manager, complete the following step:
