Hi,
You can setup a DBCP connection pool wherever you want, but then it's
your code running it, not the tomcat built-in code (and thus access is
not via JNDI).  That's what I do so that I don't rely on the server's
connection pooling.

You cannot setup a realm completely in web.xml, as a Realm is
tomcat-specific and therefore it's declaration and definition must be in
a tomcat configuration file, e.g. server.xml or your context XML file if
you're using one.
