You've run into a fun little nuance with Tomcat/IE/HTTPS and Auth. The good news is that there is an easy fix. Are you using Form or Basic auth?

Carson... OK, now I'm confused! :-D I disabled the security constraints and it now works! So I guess my questions now are: a) Why do the browsers (Firefox/IE) behave differently in this respect? b) How can I configure things to have both authentication AND https within IE? Again to restate, I am using Tomcat, but not using the flashproxy (since I'm using form based authentication which the proxy doesn't handle).
