The problem I'm facing is that I have MSWord (*.doc) files in a webapp that required basic auth to access. The problem I've come across is that when downloading (viewing) the files in IE, word can't find the file (it's not cached http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=317208). I've checked out the headers using wget and it looks like tomcat is adding the Pragma and Cache-Control headers (which causes the IE problem). Note that I'm running apache infront of tomcat.

I'm basically using tomcat in place of Apache's .htaccess files, since I need to use tomcat's single-signon for other *real* applications.
