Chris, it is just authentication basic.
I definitely want authentication for remote access, but I had hoped I could override this with a Valve for local access. Anyway, I'll spare the two apps and do two Servlet mappings /local /remote protect /remote with <security-constraint> and check in the servlet code if Servlet Path == local && remote IP in local network And I'll try to mod_rewrite /remote to /local if in local network.
