Subject: Basic question on requiring a login


Hi Tomcat users,

Maybe I'm not googling with the right keywords, but I can't seem to find a simple answer to this...

I have a standard Tomcat 6.0.10 installation (no Apache httpd front end or anything). All the contents of the webapps directory have been removed, and a single web app has been deployed -- my root application (ROOT.war). Very simple, and all's working great.

Here's the part I need help with: Now I want Tomcat to require a login panel before anyone can access the application.

How to I get Tomcat to force a login panel when users access the root web app? (Basically I'm looking for the same sort of functionality you get with Apache .htaccess files etc but without the extra complexity of integrating with Apache httpd).

Any tips or pointers greatly appreciated!  Thanks!

Look at this article... then once you got the lingo, you can google for the other half million ;)
