You know.. I went ahead and followed this.. and there is a major typo on the first tutorial on the second page when creating the mysql database for tomcatusers. Look for it if you do it this way:
5. Create the user_roles table using the following command:
create table users
(
user_name varchar(15) not null,
role_name varchar(15) not null,
primary key(user_name, role_name)
);
SHOULD SAY:
5. Create the user_roles table using the following command:
create table user_roles
(
user_name varchar(15) not null,
role_name varchar(15) not null,
primary key(user_name, role_name)
);

Hi Peter,
You are taking the wrong approach here I think. You should not
code these kind of security issues directly into your JSP or servlets,
but instead use the Tomcat security features. If you use Tomcat,
of course :-)
There are some very good article on O'Reilly about protecting parts of
your web site with username/password combinations:

Good luck,
Ronald Wildenberg.
