I read in org.apache.tomcat.request.JDBCRealm.java that the proper URI
should be "/j_security_check", and that if the preceeding "/" is not
present, or if another path is prepended, the path is normalized to
"/j_security_check".
If this URI is recognized, and the path requires security handling,
JDBCRealm.java then prepares a SQL statement to query the database, using
the information specified in the JDBC <RequestInterceptor> in server.xml.
Now, if only I could get it to trigger...

Form based security was not supported in Tomcat 3.1, but is supported in 3.2
and 4.0.
Note that you do ***not*** provide a "j_security_check" class. That URI is
handled by Tomcat. The only thing your webapp includes related to security
is
a form login page and a form error page.
See the "examples" application included with Tomcat. It uses form-based
security to protect the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/examples/jsp/security/protected
