OK: And I may be way of base: I just checked the source forge cvs,
haven't downloaded or installed anything, so my 2c is probably not worth
much, but ...
To me it seems that they wrote their own extension to catalina,
package org.securityfilter.realm.catalina;
<snip>
public class CatalinaRealmAdapter implements SecurityRealmInterface {
<snip>
So, in my own private way of thinking, I would assume that you are not
actually extending any of the base Tomcat classes, but one of their
classes. This would lead me to believe that you need to publish the
security filter classes as part of your web application to be able to
successfully a. use them, b. customise the realm.
So: question: Have you tried added the securityfilter classes to
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/YourWebApp/WEB-INF/classes
or
$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib
depending on what format they are?
But, like I said: I haven't installed it, nor do I understand it, it's
just my 2c.
