Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application Server
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The authorization data entry for JAAS   *
*                      is prefixed by "nodeName" by default.   *
*                      So, if "alias" is the input it would    *
*                      create "nodeName/alias" as the entry.   *
*                      However, if "nodeName/alias" is the     *
*                      input and "nodeName/alias" is already   *
*                      present, it would reject the input      *
*                      saying it already exists, when it       *
*                      should in fact accept the input and     *
*                      create "nodeName/nodeName/alias" as     *
*                      the authorization data entry            *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
A fix has been provided such that if a JAAS
authorization data entry with alias name "nodeName/alias1"
exists, users can still enter "nodeName/alias1" as the alias
if they want the nodeName to be prefixed to this entry so as
to create an entry that has an alias "nodeName/nodeName/alias1"

Problem conclusion

A fix has been provided to correctly prefix the alias name
with node name for authorization data entries if users select
the option of prefixing node names to the alias.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix pack 7.0.0.7.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
