JDBC Realm with case insensitive user name

[Pedro]

Hi all,

I basically need to implement case insensitive user names, can this be 
done with a servlet filter or do I need to subclass JDBC realm:

public class CustomJdbcRealm extends JDBCRealm {

     public CustomJdbcRealm() {
      super();
     }
    
     public Principal authenticate(String username, String credentials) {
       return super.authenticate(username.toLowerCase(), credentials);
       }
}

And in server.xml:
<Realm className="mypackage.CustomJdbcRealm" ...>

I tried this approach but get class not found exceptions, I am using 
tomcat6 in development and 5.5 in production. I package this class in a 
jar and drop it in the $CATALENA_BASE/server/lib folder.

Thanks
Peter
