Thanks for your help. I should have done this (logging) in the first place, 
sorry. The filter is invoked properly. 
The new problem is that the headers aren't added (or sent to the client). The 
code looks like this:

                        response.addHeader("WWW-Authenticate", "Negotiate");
                        response.addHeader("WWW-Authenticate", "NTLM");
                        response.setHeader("Connection", "close");
                        response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_UNAUTHORIZED);
                        response.flushBuffer(); 

This is executed for sure (put a logging statement in front of it) but has no 
effect, the response looks like a boilerplate 401. 
Where did my WWW-Authenticate headers and "Connection: close" go? (Maybe it 
helps, it does work in 6.x).

Thx
dB.

PS: you're looking at some intermediate waffle check-in, the namespace was 
renamed at some point, it's waffle.apache.

Note, that META-INF/context.xml  (case matters!) is copied to
$CATALINA_BASE\conf\Catalina\localhost\<yourapp>.xml  when the
webappication starts for the first time.  You can have a stale copy
there.

I would suggest you to enable more detailed logging.

Something like adding the following line to conf/logging.properties:
waffle.apache.NegotiateAuthenticator.level=FINE

BTW, the waffle docs say "waffle.apache.NegotiateAuthenticator", but
in the source code it is "waffle.tomcat.NegotiateAuthenticator", i.e.
a different package

http://waffle.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/view/52761#1097376


Are there any interesting messages in the log filess already?

Best regards,
