Hi
I'm using Tomcat as a Web Server. I want Tomcat to use the Basic HTTP autentication.
For this, I have added the following to the web.xml
----------------
<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>Tomcat</realm-name>
</login-config>
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>collection1</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/servlets/*</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/jsp/*</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/images/*</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>tomcat</role-name>
<role-name>role1</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
-----------
But how would I create user accounts (user name and pass words) in Tomcat, which would
be used by HTTP clients?
thanks & regards,
