No, only manager and admin role are known by Tomcat.

Does anyone know the usage of the rolename "provider" Any special meaning to 
that?

<user username="user" password="sec" roles="admin,manager,provider"/>

If you click on the link you just provided, read in the middle of the 
page :-), you will read :

"NOTE: For security reasons, using the administration webapp is 
restricted to users with role "admin". The manager webapp is restricted 
to users with role "manager". Users are defined in 
|$CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml|."

So open tomcat-user.xml and define something like that:

  <user username="karthikeyan" password="always_read_the_doc" 
roles="admin"/>
