OpenSSO woes...

We have been using OpenSSO (Fam80b1) in combination with Glasffish and OpenDS v1b008/OpenDSv1.0GA and all has been working fine. Now that we want to upgrade to openSSO 8.0 Enterprise Edition, we have found that all our custom code that works to retrieve user data with a custom schema via both the Sun IDM and our custom IDM are now broken.

The problem lies with the deprecation of AMConfig.properties file, where much vital information is stored and read by OpenSSO on system startup. The API calls that return the information from this file still exist and are not marked as deprecated, and we cannot find alternative API calls to return the same information. The properties we need are com.iplanet.am.directory.host, com.iplanet.am.directory.port, com.sun.identity.authentication.special.users

For now, it appears we cannot upgrade due to the inconsistent deprecation of features + API...
