No problem, in struts-config.xml you should have an action defined like the 
following (different values of course):

<action path="/logon"
        type="org.ifmc.struts.action.AuthenticationAction"
        name="logonForm"
        scope="request"
        validate="true"
        input="template.logon.layout"
        parameter="process">
    <forward name="continue" path="/showPortal.do" redirect="true" />     
</action>

The "input" attribute is used by the action when validation fails. Instead 
of having it point to "login.jsp" in your case, have it point to 
"errorpage.jsp". In errorpage.jsp, put something like the following where 
you want the errors displayed (this is assuming struts 1.1x, can't 
remember syntax for 1.0, but there is something similar):

<logic:messagesPresent>
    <bean:message key="errors.header"/>
    <ul>
       <html:messages id="error">
           <li><bean:write name="error"/></li>
       </html:messages>
    </ul>
</logic:messagesPresent>

Hopefully this helps. Maybe this link will help clear it up also ( take a 
look at section 3.3.4 ).
