Thanks, but we are restarting after every modification. And this is Tomcat 4, by the way. Our website is dead right now. If anybody has a clue why the password I'm putting in there isn't being accepted, please let me know!

So if you modified the file after you started Tomcat, it won't help. You'd need to restart Tomcat after modifying the file. This is just my best guess, not a definitive fact. Good luck.
