Craig, I did try it with identical <realm-name> in each web.xml file, 
before trying it with different ones.

If the realm names are identical, and i just use http basic 
authentication (which i do), what role would single sign on support 
play? I don't understand why it is needed at all - shouldn't the browser 
just send the authentication information to TC after receiving the 401 
with a WWW-Authenticate header?

thanks

Jason
