Hi, AHH!!
I was only looking through the Eclipse GUI settings, and hadn't noticed that under Servers-->Tomcat v5.5 in the Eclipse Project Explorer, there were catalina.policy, etc. files, including tomcat-users.xml :(... So, I added my role and user definitions to that tomcat-users.xml, and it worked!! I'm still a little puzzled though. In Eclipse Servers, there was also a web.xml, but I *did NOT* have to modify that web.xml, and it's picking up the web.xml from my webapp's WEB-INF\web.xml. Is that because the web.xml under Eclipse Servers is server-scoped, and so the web.xml in my webapp is overriding the Eclipse Servers web.xml? Thanks!
