Well, this isn't much different, but requires an additional .JSP and a small change to your web.xml: In web.xml you'll want to do something like the following: <login-config> <auth-method>FORM</auth-method> <realm-name>YourRealm</realm-name> <form-login-config> <form-login-page>/pages/login.jsp</form-login-page> <form-error-page>/pages/loginError.jsp</form-error-page> </form-login-config> </login-config> Now, in your login.jsp you'll need something very much like the following HTML form: <form method="post" action="j_security_check"> Username: <input type="text" name="j_username"><br> Password: <input type="password" name="j_password"><br> <input type="submit" value="Login"> <input type="reset" value="Reset"><br> </form> And so, when the thing is posted, the built-in j_security_check action will take care of reading out the j_username and j_password and getting the JAAS login module involved in the authentication process. If basic auth is working, these changes should be pretty easy to add and try out.
