I would think the simplest way to go is to define a role and add all registered users to it. Nothing says a user can't have more than one role.

Thank you very much Caldarale.

Please, do you know how to define "any role"? The framework I use
takes care of authorization (based on service's methods). I only need
to authenticate the user, otherwise I would double the access
configuration.

             <auth-constraint>

             </auth-constraint>
IIRC, 5.0 misinterpreted a <role-name> setting of *; this was corrected
in 5.5 and above.  The asterisk does not mean "any role", but rather
"all defined roles".  (See section 12 of the servlet spec.)  You need to
provide a set of valid roles via <security-role> in your web.xml file.

<Context debug="99" docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/testeweb"
     path="/testeweb">
Take out the docBase and path attributes - they're not allowed when the
<Context> element is in META-INF/context.xml (where it should be).
