Form-based login is still container-managed, so the description in the servlet spec still applies. > The question I had was what happens when you directly request > the login form and successfully login. That certainly wasn't clear from your original question - there was no mention of accessing the login form directly. In any event, the Tomcat 5.5 admin app uses form-based login, so it's a convenient tool to experiment with. Attempting to access the form directly (/admin/login.jsp) results in the form being displayed properly, but when it's submitted, a 404 is returned with the description "The requested resource (/admin/j_security_check) is not available." This makes sense, since Tomcat didn't do a save of the the original request and generate an internal one for the login page, so it doesn't know that login processing is going on. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
