I am trying to secure ejbs deployed on Wildfly 16 with Elytron and Keycloak to be access from a Java swing front-end. I have checked on the internet and have not found any specific examples on how to do this. Can anyone please help showing the standalone.xml config and wildfly-config. I have install the Keycloak adapter as described in the Keycloak documentation.

Keycloak: Distribution powered by Quarkus
Keycloak WildFly (deprecated): Distribution powered by WildFly
When i see documentation it says:
The default distribution of Keycloak is now powered by Quarkus, which brings a number
of breaking changes to you configure Keycloak and deploy custom providers.
For more information check out the Quarkus Migration Guide.
The WildFly distribution of Keycloak is now deprecated, with support ending June 2022.
We recommend migrating to the Quarkus distribution as soon as possible.
However, if you need to remain on the legacy WildFly distribution for some time,
there are some changes to consider
I am using Wildfly as application Server where projects are deployed.
Shall this means i use Wildfly distribution of Keycloak only whose support is ending June 2022.
or
Does this mean that Keycloak use Wildfly underneath and not use that anymore and quarkus is used? (now here can quarkus distribution work fine with wildfly settings we currently have)
Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with WildFly anymore. Until recent versions, the Keycloak was being packaged as a Java EE archive file (or as WildFly module) that you could deploy into WildFly application server.
Quarkus on the other hand is a framework to develop cloud native Java applications. It's runtime relies on many open source projects for underlying services (e.g. Vertx, SmallRye projects, etc.) and has a completely different architecture. As part of such a migration, Keycloak is now being packaged as an standalone java application (that is a typical output for an app developed using Quarkus) and contains all its dependencies. So there is no deployment/installation on WildFly anymore.
Quarkus applications are being designed by default to be run on cloud environments like Kubernetes. So you may also require to consider if you can benefit from this if you have such an infrastructure in your organization (however it's not mandatory and you can just run it as a normal java app on your server). But you can definitely not use your WildFly specific configurations (e.g. the Keycloak subsystem or OpenID subsystem) anymore.
You can find more details here.
Quarkus is a variation of Wildfly that is packaged in such a way as to make containerization (i.e. Docker, Kubernetes, etc.) much easier. Applications written for Wildfly (and JEE in general) can be made to run in Quarkus quickly.
Wildfy 25 and above include OIDC functionality internally. Therefore, you don't need to install the Keycloak extensions like you used to. And Keycloak, as of version 15, is based on Quarkus too. Because of this there is a build phase of the installation that lets you set many of the options before the run phase. For example, I used to setup a data source in the standalone.xml for my database. Now, I use the resources.properties to setup my database for Keycloak. The concepts are similar.
If you're using a version of Wildfly less than 25 then you'll still want the Keycloak adapter.
We are a Java shop and use maven. Our app is on wildfly 18. Does anyone have any experiences on migrating a wildfly app to OIDC? We were given a security library that we can use to make OIDC calls to, but it requires a config file co-located with this library. Do we need to use a module for this? If so, do we need a particular section filled out in our standalone.xml?
You asked about Wildfly 18. This one for sure needs add-on modules, such as those provided by the keycloak project (https://www.keycloak.org/downloads).
Since Wildfly 25 the OpenID Connect functionality was added to the Wildfly releases, and since then the addon modules are no longer required. In fact, they should no longer get installed as they seem to break Wildfly.

I have created a J2ee web application and i am pushing it on bluemix with tomcat java_buildpack. Now i would like to enable the mutual auth on the server and would like to modify the tomcat's server.xml to enable mutual and assign a keystore.I am not able to find a way how to do that.
Can you please help?
Thanks in advance.
I want to use SSO jbpm 6.2 via CAS server 4.0.0 (and cas is running on tomcat) but i don't know how to do it. I searched on google but i can't find how to config wildfly of jbpm 6.2 with CAS server.
Please help me, thank you for your help !
I have no expirience with CAS but this tutorial helped me set up jbpm 6.1 with WSO2 Identity Manager.

It might not be the same but this can put you on the right track since CAS can also handle SAML. Wildfly uses picketlink to handle security federation, reading the docs will be helpful on your journey.
