Yes. You can also define a realm at the <Context> level to be specific to
a particular web application.
If you leave your realm at the <Engine> or <Host> level, you should also
check out the "Single Sign On" capability, if you've got users that use
more than one application on the same virtual host.
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/config/host.html
then scroll down to "Single Sign On" under the Special Features section.
