You are talking about something that should not your job and normally it is
other people's job. It seems to me you need simple authentication. It is Web
server and Browser and your job. Let me take Apache Web server as an
example:
In server configuration file you tell server which page is protected page
which means user/pass needed and create a encoded password file and tell
server where to check it. When client use browser hit your that page your
server will send a authentication requirement to client and browser will pop
up a window to ask client to identify themselves. Browser will send
user/pass back to server and server will check your file if any match your
server will send the page to client otherwise the server will send
authentication failure web page to user.
If you want do these job by yourself you can create a error page and config
web server. When authentication is failed. In JSP issue command
sendErrorPage() or something I can remember clearly. Check JSP document.

Is there any particular reason why you don't use Beans or XML. It can really
make life simple.
