Hi, This is not hard to do with a Filter, as long as your authentication is done before this Filter (possibly with another one). Your chain would then look like: - Authentication filter (mapped to /*, does nothing if request already authenticated) - Rewrite filter (mapped to /*, checks credentials, does redirect if needed) - Normal servlets
