Tomcat fans,

I have a (I assume basic) question wrt servlet/tomcat
authentication/authorization

First let me indicate I would like my URL to always be something like 
http://<host>/username

I have configured a security-constraint like

<security-constraint>
  <web-resource-collection>
    <web-resource-name>myapp</web-resource-name>
      <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
      <http-method>POST</http-method>
      <http-method>GET</http-method>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <auth-constraint>
      <role-name>user</role-name>
     </auth-constraint>
 </security-constraint>


I would however like to have some static resources accessible without any
authentication. Typically these would be identified with 
http://<host>/resouce/appstyle.css etc.

The reason is that I would like to have the login page use an external
stylesheet and/or some images.

Is that at all possible? Any guidelines how to achieve that?

Thanks,

Peter
