Not sure how to answer your Realm question. The realm in the web.xml is not referenced anywhere. The realm definition for this tomcat instance is in the server.xml. Should the realm defined in the web.xml be defined/referenced somewhere?
Just tried the basic setup again and no luck. When prompted, I should enter id - bob, pw - bob according to my tomcat-users.xml, correct??? <user username="bob" password="bob" roles="vsn-offsh"/> On Thu, Oct 21, 2010 at 2:18 PM, Caldarale, Charles R < chuck.caldar...@unisys.com> wrote: > > From: Keith Masten [mailto:spmdt...@gmail.com] > > Subject: Re: Securing A Directory Listing > > > login dialog is presented, but no matter what Id/pw I > > provide I cannot login. > > For initial testing purposes, try BASIC for the <auth-method> and put > unencrypted passwords in the <tomcat-users> list.
