Disable username/password authentication while server shutdown

[jithesh]

Hi,

I am using wasce 2.0 as my appserver. I am running it under my wmware instance. My problem is if I shutdown the wmware instance , the wasce asks the username and password and waits there. This halts wmware from shutiing down. Is it possible to disable this feature while shutdown process.

Thanks
JIthesh PM.

Is this a Linux O/S?

If so, do you have an init script that does the shutdown. If it's
Linux I assume so, because the alternative would be a kill signal.

So, to do this in Linux I stored my username and password in file
which only root can read, then I have these added to the geronimo.sh
script's arguments. Something like:
/path/to/geronimo/bin/geronimo.sh stop --user
`</path/to/username.file` --password `</path/to/password.file`

Another option would be to use the GShell command deploy/login by updating your server to v2.1.1.2 or above, which is based on G2.1.4.

You only need to input the username/password once, after that you won't be bothered to input them from command line interface any more.

Similar information was documented in G2.1 doc at
