Hello All,
  I have got a simple question on BASIC authentication on webresources using 
Tomcat.
I had set up this BASIC authentication on tomcat and tomcat[because of my misconfiguration????] seems to authenticate user every time they accesses resource though the client is sending back the jsessionID cookie for session tracking... 2 request-response formats are as follows..Ideally i dont expect it to throw me an unauthorized error for the 2nd request..Can anyone point out what am i doing wrong??

You're not sending the Authorization header in the second request. Remember, HTTP is stateless. Sessions are a web-app thing and have nothing to do with HTTP authentication. Sending a session cookie has no effect on HTTP authentication.
