http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37413 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2005-11-09 08:17 ------- I've since recoded by modifying my credentials provider and all is well. I added a boolean to check to see if the getCredentials method had been called already and if so, return null, which terminated the loop. If anything, this revealed shortcomings with tomcat BASIC authentication since the endless loop repeatedly hammered my authenitication class on the web server- - but perhaps thats a limitation of the http protocol or something that would be intercepted by the firewall in production. The code sample I had initially used (copied from) was in fact the call-back code which got the credentials from the command-line (I believe the sample code may be part of the distribution). Perhaps that code should be updated to show how to terminate after 3 unsuccessful logins.
