Hi,

We had a small web application on tomcat 5.5.  We use tomcat realm
(MD5 digest)  with the form-based login.  I have a few questions on
this.

1.  When we use http, does the form-based login page send the username
and password plainly or in the digested form?

2.  We set up the ssl in 8443 port.  All links in our application are
relative link without the specified scheme.   So currently all the
links (including login page) go either through normal http or
encrypted https.  Is there anyway to limit the ssl only for the login
page alone and make sure login page always go through ssl?  Rest pages
are really fairly low-risk stuff and we do not worry about the leak on
them.

Thanks.

Sincerely
