Hi Baris,

I tried:
java -classpath CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/catalina.jar
org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase -a MD5 aksu

And got:
aksu:394e654ca65973f232653fb0008c603d

So that seems to be working correctly.  You may want to try changing
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>, to
<auth-method>DIGEST</auth-method>.  Since the browser is getting the
password you want it to be digested before it goes out on the net for
security unless you are using SSL.  Then it gets encrypted anyway and
digesting just protects your passwords from observation on the server side.
This might require you to turn off digest in the realm.

You can also increase the debug level in the realm and see what the log
files say.

Hope this helps,

Rick
