Hey Bruce,

thanks for your advice, i am almost there......:-)
.....but still one problem left...
 (believe me, if i get this done, i will write / add a tutorial to the
confluence wiki, because i really think there is a need for a detailed
description of what to do for people who are not very familiar with
JAAS....)

Ok, 

here i am:

-> I defined a realm in $ACTIVEMQ_HOME/webapps/admin/WEb-INF/web.xml which
looks like that:

  <security-constraint>
          <web-resource-collection>
                  <web-resource-name>adminInterface</web-resource-name>
                  <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
          </web-resource-collection>
          <auth-constraint>
                  <role-name>adminRole</role-name>
          </auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>

<login-config>
        <auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
        <realm-name>adminInterface</realm-name>
</login-config>

This look good so far, if i try to browse http://localhost:8161/admin i get
a 500-error.

-> added "userRealms" to the activemq.xml like described in the afore
mentioned example:

    <userRealms>
      <!-- "name" must match the realm in web.xml, and "loginModuleName"
must be defined in login.conf -->
      <jaasUserRealm name="adminInterface" loginModuleName="ActiveMQ"
        
callbackHandlerClass="org.mortbay.jetty.plus.jaas.callback.DefaultCallbackHandler"
/>
    </userRealms> 

And changed the parameter jaasUserRealm name= to the realm-name i had
defined in the web.xml, namely "adminInterface".

-> login.config under $AMQ_HOME/conf:

activemq-domain {
    org.apache.activemq.jaas.PropertiesLoginModule required
        debug=true
       
org.apache.activemq.jaas.properties.user="org/apache/activemq/security/users.properties"
       
org.apache.activemq.jaas.properties.group="org/apache/activemq/security/groups.properties";
};

-> users.properties under $AMQ_HOME/conf:

admin=manager

-> groups.properties under $AMQ_HOME/conf:

admin=adminRole

I copied jetty-plus-6.1.9.jar to $ACTIVEMQ_HOME/lib/ and restarted the
broker.

And....hooray! I get a login mask with a user and a password field!

But when i enter 

name:admin
password: manager
(like defined in the user.properties)

i don't get logged in but the the login-mask pops up again.

The broker-log tells me:

WARN  log                            - AUTH FAILURE: user admin
WARN  log                            - java.lang.SecurityException: Unable
to locate a login configuration

So i assume i am still doing something wrong. Probably because i
misunderstood some of your answers:

You wrote:

The login.conf file is pointed to by a system property named
java.security.auth.login.config as in:

-Djava.security.auth.login.config=login.conf 

Ok, but do i actually have to edit the activemq-startscript or is it
sufficient to put the login.conf in a classpath-directory? I assumed the
later, so put the login.conf in AMQ_HOME/conf, which i believe is in the
classpath?

>  What should its content look like?

Follow the rules specified in the Javadoc for the Java Security
Configuration object here:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/javax/security/auth/login/Configuration.html

Thx for the link, as far as i can tell, i did this right?

>  What "loginModuleName" should i specify?

You can specify any string as the loginModuleName. The important part
is that the realm-name in the web.xml and the loginModuleName in the
Jetty config match exactly. 

Was that a typo? I think you meant "the realm in the web.xml and
jaasUserRealm name must match exactly", right?

Furthermore:

I assume the in the web.xml defined role "adminRole" is mapped to the
group-entry "adminRole"?
