If you uncomment the EJB providers from osuser-default.xml and deploy
osuser.jar (requires deployment of oscore.jar and propertyset.jar and
commons-logging.jar) and your .war in a .ear, this will set you up to do
container managed persistence using JDBC.  You will want to configure
osuser's META-INF/ejb-jar.xml, META-INF/weblogic-ejb-jar, and
META-INF/weblogic-cmp-rdbms-jar.xml

I didn't actually do that myself, but I went down that route in an attempt
to connect osuser to weblogic's security realm.

I think that to do that, I would have to write providers similar to the
Orion providers.  Is this right?  Will this be hard to do?

Thanks!
