This to me sounds worth investigating. If you have correctly set up authentication
on the URL of your servlet, then succesfully authenticated requests for this
URL should appear in your Apache log, complete with the username that was provided.
(assuming you are using the default logging format)

Back to the basics here. If the above is not working, I suspect that the basic
configuration of Apache's authentication is not correct.


- Can you confirm when you access your servlet url that you are even prompted for 
credentials?

- If yes, can you log in ?

- If yes, what does the Apache log show for a successful access to this URL ?

- What does the Apache log show for accesses to other URLs which require authentication
  on the webserver, e.g. your CGIs? Is there a username present in these log entries? 

- Can you post the httpd.conf entries that you use to protect the various URLs?
  Include any directives (File/Location/Directory etc..) that relate to 
  authentication/authorization/access control, and make sure they are posted in the 
order
  that they appear in this file. Or if you feel like it just post the whole config 
file.

Cheers,
Morgan
