ok, is there an easy way to require authentication to access a
particular webapp, without modifying the war file?
You can try using this:
http://securityfilter.sourceforge.net/

sf is expected to be used from within a web application, so it has to be
deployed along with the webapp. So, the WAR file would have to be
modified in this case.

To the OP: what's wrong with modifying the deployment descriptor of your
webapp in order to .... describe the deployment of your webapp?
Nothing wrong with that, it makes sense.
We had a request from a client to require authentication on a webapp they are testing out. On production we don't want the authentication. If we could keep the wars exactly the same it would simplify things for operations.
