Can you see in your Tomcat log files if you are being forwarded back to the original request page after authentication? If yes, and you are being authenticated as you indicate, this sounds like the state is somehow being lost. In this case, you might be in a forwarding loop between the protected resources and the login page. I'm not sure on why this would be happening.
You might take a look at our Cams product: http://www.cafesoft.com
Cams unifies Apache and Tomcat security under a centralized security policy umbrella. It is tested under Windows and Linux to work via JDBC.
Good luck,

Hi,
I have a JDBC realm set up that interfaces with a mysql database in tomcat 4.0 on a windows 2000 server. This has been working fine - I place my pages under the security constraint, and I am forwarded to the login page o.k. Entering my details then puts me to the 'login correct' page, and all is good. Now I have now migrated to tomcat 4.0 on Mandrake 9, and I cannot log in. I have turned up debugging to full, and I can see that authorization is fine. I can see the sql and see the results being returned, however, I keep getting forwarded back to the login page. My configurations are very similar! Though, strangely enough, the RPM that I got from RPM finder has different ports configured to the win2k ones. I've replaced the server.xml with the one from the win2k distribution of Tomcat 4.0.
Thanks
Ben
