question about Realm's scope

Hi 
I'm running a Tomcat 5 in my job, where we have deployed a number of
web application (ie. contexts).

Some of this web applications require that the user be authenticated
by a login screen (allways checking against the same database table),
and some of the other applications are independent of each other, so
no login is required.

The question is: 

Can I define different Realms to support this particular configuration? 

In other words, if a user login when entering an application, and
then, through a redirect, that application send him to other
application located in the same server that has to pass the login
again, do the login be bypassed? or it will just ask for the
username/password again, even if the user was already logged on by the
prior application?

Thanks in advance,
Gabriel
