I'm currently running into the same situation.  If you added to your web-inf directory.  Do you 
just create a dir called "jsp"?  and treat that as your root?  Is there any sort of 
special path or configuration needed for this?  I'm using Tomcat 5.0.

Thanks,

Hi I am going to use custom tags for checking access to Jsp, if no user/bean bean in session, then direct to login page.

And I am also going to check admin bean again in Action before invoking life cycle methods on business beans.

Now am I over kill with authentication??


Way overkill. Put your jsps in WEB-INF, and no one can get at them. If your container is new enough to handle filters, use them instead. Otherwise, use a BaseSecurityAction that overrides execute, does the check and then calls whateverYouWantForYourActualExecutionCode( same params as execute).

You shouldn't allow access to your jsp pages.
