Ajay, I tried a JDBC realm with MySQL (on Tomcat 4.1.24) earlier this week and had to add the keys 'connectionName="MySQLusername"' and 'connectionPassword="MySQLpassword"'. Using a jdbc realm had no effect on my ability to login to the tomcat manager.
Did you put the JDBC realm in the "<Context...> ... </Context>" section of your server.xml Tomcat configuration files or another section? When it is in the context section, it applies only to your application context. If it is somewhere else in the server.xml configuration files, it may wreak havok on other applications. This could possibly also affect your Tomcat manager, which normally uses the flat text file "conf/tomcat-managers.xml".
