If you interpret "xyz" as "just any username", then I guess you need a
separate login page (and perhaps two different error pages?). How else
should you get to the error page from the failed login? [There is
probably some way, and it would be interersting to know.]

However, if you follow what we learned earlier in the lab, you could
interpret "xyz" as some unauthorized but valid user, e.g. daniel. Then
you can work with basic authentication and an error page very similar
to myown403error.jsp - I've tried it.
