Second, read Tomcat's doc about selecting and configuring a <Realm> for the particular authentication mechanism you want to use. You didn't bother to tell us the version of Tomcat you have, but here's the link for the current one: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/realm-howto.html You also might want to look at the How To part of the Tomcat Wiki; there are a few entries in there related to authentication. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
