I'm providing my comments assuming that you are a Java developer.
1. Do you see any issues using a Servlet filter for doing this?
2. You could use realms if you can access ServletRequest object which
will give
you the IP address of the client. But I don't think you can access
ServletRequest object in relam class in tomcat. I know you can do it with JBoss
3. You may be able to write custom callback handlers and callback and
get
client IP to realm(a wild guess)

Sorry. I meant...
"Is there another way to achieve this, i.e. without using Realms or
mixing valve/filters with Realms?"

I need to treat my clients differently depending on where they came
from. I need to trust all requests coming locally (i.e. from
127.0.0.1/localhost) and not require them to authentication. However all
external requests need to go through authentication. Is there a way to
configure Realms in Tomcat to accommodate this?
Is there another way to achieve this, i.e. without using Realms or
missing valve/filters with Realms?
