Hi, Tim: Thank you for your reply. I followed your instruction and edited
the web.xml like the following:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>IsItWorking</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/IsItWorking</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
</security-constraint>
<servlet-mapping>
<url-pattern>/servlet/IsItWorking</url-pattern>
<servlet-name>IsItWorking</servlet-name>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>IsItWorking</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>IsItWorking</servlet-class>
</servlet>
I have the testing servlet IsItWorking in the
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/WEB-INF/classes directory. But
when I tried to access the servlet, there is no loggin prompt for me, I just
get the page right away. Do you see anything
wrong with my settings in the web.xml. Thanks for your help.

use the security-constraint element in web.xml:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Secure Servlets</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/main/secure</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
</security-constraint>
<servlet-mapping>
<url-pattern>/main/secure</url-pattern>
<servlet-name>main servlet</servlet-name>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>main servlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.foo.Servlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

Subject: How to set access restriction to servlets in tomcat?
Could someone drop me any hints about how to set access restriction to
servlets, please?
One of my servlets needs to get the user name using request.getRemoteUser
() method.
Can we set access restriction to servlets in Tomcat?
Thanks for you help!
