iPlanet Web Server 6.0 supported both types of deployment schemes, but the 4.x
implementation (referred to as legacy servlets) was marked as deprecated (See Chapter 8:
“Legacy Servlet and JSP Conguration” of the iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition
Programmer's Guide to Servlets).
Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 does not support Legacy Servlets. The legacy-style properties
les for the server you want to migrate - servlet.properties, context.properties, and
rules.properties - are removed during migration.
Because there is no one-to-one mapping for all of the features, legacy servlets cannot be
migrated automatically.
For documentation and samples to help you migrate your 4.x legacy-style servlets to the web
applications structure in Sun Java System Web Server 6.1, see the Sun Java System Web
Server 6.1 SP9 Programmer’s Guide to Web Applications.
Search Migration
Because the search engine used in Sun Java System Web Server 6.0 is replaced by a new search
engine in Sun Java System Web Server 6.1, existing search collections and indexes are not
migrated during the migration process. To use the Search functionality in Sun Java System Web
Server 6.1, you create and congure new search collections and indexes. For more information,
see the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP9 Administrator’s Guide.
Security
Sun Java System Web Server provides new at le authentication and closer integration of
native access control with web application security constraints. However, core authentication
and authorization support is the same as in the version 6.0 release.
Sun Java System Web Server 6.1, apart from providing ACL-based authentication, also
leverages the security model dened in the J2SE Specication to provide several features that
help you develop and deploy secure Java Web applications. The J2SE/Servlet-based access
control infrastructure relies on the use of security realms.
In Sun Java System Web Server 6.1, authentication is performed by Java security realms which
are congured through AUTHREALM entries in the server.xml le. In case any such rules have
been set, authorization is performed by access control rules in the deployment descriptor le
web.xml,.
For more information about security-related features in Sun Java System Web Server 6.1, see
the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP9 Administrator’s Guide and the Sun Java System Web
Server 6.1 SP9 Programmer’s Guide.
