Hi, Struts doesn't have anything like that.
IMHO, I also think that using validator on the login page is not good practice as it would give malicious users a good idea on how your app handles authentication. Usually, you'd just return a generic error message such as "Username/password invalid" whenever login fails (or in your case, the user directly types /login.do in the browser). Try not to give out any information as much as possible.
