1. Why not a Realm?
Because the authentication depends on session attribute, and I want to
bypass the form if user is logged in.

So is this correct?

<Valve className="hu.kozo.security.MyFormAuthenticator" />

The tomcat's doc says, that "Java class name of the implementation to
use. This MUST be set to
org.apache.catalina.authenticator.FormAuthenticator."

Tnaks for help.
