conf/tomcat-users.xml syntax and semantics

2005-09-21 Thread Paul Singleton
What is the correct syntax (for 5.5.9 and later) of conf/tomcat-users.xml, and what do the entries mean? (I've read the docs, but still don't really get it) Should I put user name=paul ... or user username=paul ... Are these entries user username=both password=tomcat

A realm, in this case the UserDatabase realm is simply a collection of users, passwords, and roles. You could also think of a role as a group. It identifies valid users of a web application (or set of web applications), plus an enumeration of the list of roles associated with each valid user.
