The web.xml contains: + + <auth-constraint> + <!-- NOTE: This role is not present in the default users file --> + <role-name>manager</role-name> + </auth-constraint> + + So either the docs need to change, or the manager web.xml needs to change. + Preferably the latter, given the precendent. + + --Jeff
