To use Java EE authentication information for JPA Security you may integrate JPA Security like described in the previous chapter and specify net.sf.jpasecurity.security.authentication.EjbAuthenticationProvider as authentication provider in your persistence properties. You need to define all the roles your application is using with the @DeclareRoles annotation at at least one of your entity beans in order to make the EjbAuthenticationProvider work correctly.

If you do not have a version of a spring-security.jar in your classpath usually you do not need to define your own authentication provider as the auto-detection mechanism of JPA Security should automatically install the EjbAuthenticationProvider.
