Yes, I did not find that useful.  It is very vague to say the least.  If I am 
missing something please let me know.  I want to use Built-in Tomcat support.

Did you find this?

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/windows-auth-howto.html

I haven't tested this when Tomcat is on a non-Windows platform. It is certainly 
possible for this to work although whether any other pieces (such as samba) are 
required and what their configuration might be I don't know. OTOH, it might 
just work.

I'll add looking at this to my to do list but it is a long list...
