And another one:

AFAIK, when using Form-based Authentication, the parameters for
j_security_check are send in a readable manner over the wire, thus
prone for an attack.

Therefore, it is recommended to use SSL-encription for the Form-Loginpage.

However, that means that one has to buy one of those quite expensive SSL-certs.

Since those pages actually don't need SSL at all except for the
Login-process, is there any way to achieve encryption for the
Login-process without a valid SSL-cert?

Your suggestions very welcome
