I'm new to Tomcat (and most Java for that matter). I have Solaris 8 with Apache 1.3.22 and Tomcat 4.0.3. I've created the mod_webapp.so module and it appears to work for me - in the sense that I can get the example jsp code to run through my apache. However, I need to also use the exhisting ACLs we have in place (.htaccess files) and assumed that apache would handle these but it doesn't.
Is this a glitch in my configuration or is it true that the webapp connector will not allow the .htaccess file to be read by apache? I started to explore ajp13 connector to see if it could offer me something that webapp connector didn't, but haven't been able to get ajp13 to work. Does anyone know how I can get webapp connector to use apache's basic authentication? I'd really like to do the authentication on the webserver and leave tomcat to do the applications. Is there some syntax that I could place in the server.xml file to tell tomcat to use apache's basic auth? If webapp connector won't allow this, is there another connector/method out there that can allow this? thanks!
