Which version of tomcat are you trying ?
I think about 2 months ( see
<http://jakarta.apache.org/cvsweb/index.cgi/jakarta-tomcat/src/share/org
/apache/tomcat/request/Attic/JDBCRealm.java?only_with_tag=tomcat_32> )
ago i fixed this isuue, i'm not sure which exact version of tomcat 3.2.X
beta has this fix inside....but you could test lastest 3.2.2 Beta to
know if you still have problems with JDBCRealm..
