To use Apache's authentication, you must update the Ajp13Connector to set "tomcatAuthentication" false in your server.xml (it defaults true), i.e.:
<Ajp13Connector port="8009" tomcatAuthentication="false" /> There is a little bit of documentation concerning this in the server.xml, above the Ajp13Connector element. You can find a little more documentation here: <http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/serverxml.html#Ajp13Connector> Once tomcatAuthentication is set false, any security constraints in web.xml files will no longer work. This probably won't impact your web applications, but the "security" examples will stop functioning.
