By configuring the realm in tomcats server.xml it is necessary that the
jdbc driver jar file is in the classpath of tomcat/catalina.

Look at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.0-doc/realm-howto.html#JDBCRealm:
Place a copy of the JDBC driver you will be using inside the
$CATALINA_HOME/server/lib directory (if you do not need it visible to
web applications) or $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib  (if it will be used both
by Tomcat 5 and by your apps). Note that only JAR files are recognized!
