Sounds like you're confusing two separate and distinct facilities of Tomcat. Any <Realm> is for Tomcat's use only, not for use by the webapp. Any <Resource> is for the webapp's use, although Tomcat may manage appropriately configured ones on behalf of the webapp. If this particular <Realm> controls access only to this one webapp, then its proper location is within the <Context> element of that webapp. Any wider scope (such as <Host>) will cause the <Realm> to be used for all webapps of that <Host>. What do you actually want to achieve? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
