I'm implemented it like this: public final static String[] LOGIN_FILTER_WHITELIST = new String[] { "/images/.*\\.jpg", "/images/.*\\.gif", "/.*\\.css", "/template/errorpage\\.jsp"}; . . private boolean checkWhiteList(String path) { for (int i = 0; i < Constants.LOGIN_FILTER_WHITELIST.length; i++) { if (path.matches(Constants.LOGIN_FILTER_WHITELIST[i])) return true; } return false; } . . HttpServletRequest httpRequest = (HttpServletRequest)request; if (checkWhiteList(httpRequest.getServletPath())) { chain.doFilter(request, response); return; } >> Is there a possibility to define an exclude list?

Great, all fine now! Thanks.
