I'm not sure about your LDAP configuration exactly (I've never used
Tomcat with LDAP authentication myself) but Tomcat's security is
entirely based upon roles. Thus, if you have (LDAP) users that are not
in any group, those users are not going to be able to successfully
access any resources unless you have <role-name>*</role-name> in your
<auth-constraint>.
