GlobalNamingResources element required in Tomcat 4.1.2?

[Jonathan Eric Miller <je...@uchicago.edu>]

I noticed that you will receive the following error if you do not have a
GlobalNamingResources element in your server.xml file for Tomcat 4.1.2.
IMHO, this tag shouldn't be required because sometimes you might not having
anything to put in that section. i.e. I want to use JNDIRealm, not the
UserDatabaseRealm, therefore, I don't really have anything that I need to
put in that section.
