I had a similar problem in that my IE kept just logging on to the basic authentication dialog automatically, like in a session. I had to stop IE and restart it to have a new session.
I thought that I was no longer being asked for authentication, but the browser IE5.5 was sending it automatically.
In tomcat (check the docos) turn on debug listing for the authenication module. I cannot remeber what the setting is.. sorry.. But when you turn it on then you will see in the log that Tomcat is authenticating.
Hope this helps

Subject: [JBoss-user] Jboss/Tomcat/Apache Basic Authentication...
I enabled basic authentication through .htaccess file and it all worked fine
during development. But as soon as I created .ear file, basic authentication
dialog is gone and JSP pages are not secured anymore. I am using JBoss 2.1,
Tomcat 3.2.1, Apache.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Tahir
