I'm wanting to register a custom authenticator to send out and handle
a custom WWW-Authenticate header (similar to what's described
here[1]).  I gather that I can implement AuthenticatorBase for this
purpose but I'm curious about registering it. The docs[2] suggests
registering it by adding the entry to the Authenticators.properties
file, which, I gather, requires unjaring catalina.jar.  I'd like to
distribute my new authenticator to other locations in an enterprise
and asking folks to unjar catalina.jar wouldn't sit well.  So... I'm
hoping there's another way to register a custom authenticator or
otherwise achieve this?

Thanks,
