RE: How can I create a digest password
The problem you are hiting is due to the location of the jar file in the default tomcat install. You can move the jar file into the lib\common area. Frankly, I think it's much cleaner to just copy the code to create pw's into one of your own classes. It's only a few lines of code. Just find the realmbase class in the Tomcat source and clone the method.

Monitoring Realm Logins
I'm looking for a way to monitor logins to a realm. I want the capability to force users to change passwords in some situations. Is there a relatively standard way to do this (registering a listener, etc.)? Or do I have to go in and do surgery on the Realm authentication class? I'd like a way to be called to check the user status in my db, and just pass through if everything is ok, or route to my pw chg page if necessary. Or is this something as simple as looking for something in the request object that tells me this is the first page since the user logged on? Thanks.

Setting up to use j_security_check??
I'm attempting to move from basic authentication to form-based. Got everything configured and the forms created, etc. The login form comes up as expected. But when I submit, it says it can't find url j_security_check. Am I supposed to do something to configure/enable that url in tomcat? I've seen docs that say to use action=j_security_check and some that say to include a slash: action=/j_security_check. But neither works for me. What am I missing?

RE: Setting up to use j_security_check??
Hmmm, I have the first two, but not the security-role. Not sure why that wasn't in this particular webapp. It's been working w/ basic auth, though. Is that the magic key that's missing in form auth? Is that a tag that's only required with form auth and not required for basic auth? I'll add it and try again. Thanks.

Accessing the context path within a Servlet/JSP
I have looked at the JavaDocs, but I can't find a method that will give me the context path for a web app: (i.e. Context path=/abcxyz docBase=...) All I want is the /abcxyz string precisely as defined in the context tag. I have tried getPath() from the servletContext, but it returns part of the host name as well. That doesn't make sense either, but that's the way it's working for me... It returns jndi: for the protocol (???) Am I doing something else wrong here? I found the getServletContextName() method. But that is an optional parameter on the context tag, and I can't risk using something that might not be defined. I'm currently parsing up the URL object returned from servletContext.getResource(/); But this is a hack. Surely there is a better way to get the root URL context for a web app... (?) Suggestions??

Using RealmBase.Digest(...)
I'm writing an app to create user id/pw's in a db for use by realms. I've read the realm HOW-TO page. But I have two implementation questions: 1) the page says: To use either of the above techniques, the $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/catalina.jar file will need to be on your class path to make the RealmBase class available. I'm doing this in a servlet. The way I typically make jar files avail to servlets is to put them in the WEB-INF/lib dir or in the Tomcat common lib. I don't think I should be making a copy of this jar or moving it around. How do I force a jar into a webapp's classpath? Is there a tag I can put in web.xml to set classpath or add jars? 2) There are three parameters on the Digest() method. The third parm is 'encoding'. What encoding should I be using? I assume it needs to match whatever encoding the realm code is going to use when it compares the digested password. What string do I use for this parm? Thanks.

Scoping of JNDI Resources?
I know you can define DataSources, etc. globally to all of Tomcat using GlobalNamingResources. I have also determined that you can define individual DataSources inside a webApp's Context/Context block inside a Host block. But are these the only two options? I would like to define DataSources that are scoped to a Host, but not global to all of Tomcat. I tried a few things, but couldn't seem to get it to work any other way. Is there a way to define a DataSource (or any other JNDI resource) at the host level? More generally, examples of server.conf are great.

RE: Scoping of JNDI Resources?
I've actually got my realms defined per host. That's not the problem. The problem is that the datasources for the various realms must be declared globally (apparently). Until yesterday, I was running JDBCRealms where I could define a different database for each realm inside the host. But I had to move off of JDBCRealms due to a catastrophic bug discussed in an earlier thread. I'm assuming that any datasource that is defined globally is accessible to any Tomcat app that knows the datasource name, right? This means that the realm authentication db for one host is accessible to any other host that might be able to determine the datasource name. Many of my hosts are from different businesses that must ensure integrity of their security environment. With a global datasource defined for their realm authority db, I can't guarantee that another malicious host cannot access and possible corrupt the db. It doesn't seem right that there would be this sort of hole in DataSourceRealms. But right now, the only way I can find to define a datasource for any realm, even those defined inside a host, is to use global datasource definitions. Is this really the only way? Thanks.

RE: Exception on JDBCRealm Authorization
Alex, Thanks so much for doing the research on this. I do have a few questions. Has Tomcat acknowledged this and agreed that it will be fixed in 5.5.8? Any ETA for 5.5.8? Unless I'm missing something, this seems like it was be a pretty high severity bug. Or are you and I the only two people using JDBC Realms with 5.5.7? Is there no mechanism for putting out patch jar files?

Parallel install of 5.5 with existing 5.0? (Win Server 2003)
I am running 5.0 in production on my server. I want to move up to 5.5.

Single-Tag DataSource Definition?
I know the docs define a jdbc datasource using multiple nested tags, e.g.: Resource name=jdbc/mail auth=Container type=javax.sql.DataSource/ ResourceParams name=jdbc/mail parameter namefactory/name valueorg.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory/value /parameter parameter namemaxActive/name value100/value /parameter etc... But somewhere I saw an alternate single-tag format: Resource name=jdbc/mail auth=Container type=javax.sql.DataSource factory=org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory maxActive=100 maxIdle=30 maxWait=1 username=? password=??? driverClassName=org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/jbf?autoReconnect=true/ I don't remember where that originated, but it was in a supposedly running environment. I'd much prefer to use the single tag format if possible. Problem is that it doesn't seem to work. Error says the class and url are null. Was I simply incorrect in thinking it was a working env, and it this actually simply invalid syntax. Or is it supported, perhaps in a later version of Tomcat? Or do you code the Java differently with the other syntax? Can someone educate me on this? Thanks. Jerry - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
