In my thoughts, a realm in the context (or engine) overwrites the global
realm. So if you have defined a security-constraint in your
localhost-applicaions web.xml the user and roles used there for access
control are taken from the database. The memory-realm /tomcat-users.xml
won't be used. The security-constraints in the web.xml looks like:

        <security-constraint>
        <display-name>Admin Authentication</display-name>
        <web-resource-collection>
                <web-resource-name>Protected Area</web-resource-name>
                <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
                <http-method>DELETE</http-method>
                <http-method>GET</http-method>
                <http-method>POST</http-method>
                <http-method>PUT</http-method>
        </web-resource-collection>
        <auth-constraint>
                <role-name>admin</role-name>
        </auth-constraint>
        </security-constraint>

hth.
