This is not possible using Tomcat's existing container-managed
authentication implementation.

If you want something a little more flexible, you can look at
SecurityFilter (http://securityfilter.sourceforge.net).

Or, you can do as Mark suggests and use a Filter to log successful login
attempts. Unfortunately, you will be unable to log unsuccessful attempts
because IIRC Tomcat intercepts those requests before they even get to
your app's code (including Filters).
