I'm using form based authentication as follows:

<h2 style = "text-align: left"><a name = "login">Login</a></h2>
                <form method = "POST" action='<%=
response.encodeURL("j_security_check") %>'>
                    <table border="0">
                        <tr>
                            <td align = "right">Name:</td>
                            <td align = "left"><input type="text"
name="j_username"></td>
                        </tr>
                        <tr>
                            <td align = "right">Password:</td>
                            <td align = "left"><input type="password"
name="j_password"></td>
                        </tr>
                        <tr>
                            <td align = "right"><input class = "button"
type="submit" value="Log in"></td>
                            <td align = "left"><input class = "button"
type="reset" value = "Clear"></td>
                        </tr>
                    </table>
                </form>                                

And the code in web.xml is as follows:

<login-config>
        <auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
        <realm-name>Form-Based Authentication Area</realm-name>
        <form-login-config>
 
<form-login-page>/jsp/security/protected/login.jsp</form-login-page>
 
<form-error-page>/jsp/security/protected/error.jsp</form-error-page>
        </form-login-config>
    </login-config>
    <security-role>
        <description/>
        <role-name>ADMIN</role-name>
    </security-role>

I also have MD5 digest specified in context.xml.

What authentication type (scheme) are you using ?
HTTP Basic, form-based, .. ?
