Multiple Security Providers with Tomcat

I have a customer who likes to introduce chipcards with client 
certificates for single-sign-on. I need to add support for that in a 
web-application we provided.

The problem is, that not ALL users of the application may have a 
certificate. So for all not able to present a valid certificate I should 
offer a login screen to authenticate with username / password (which is 
basically the current solution)

Is there any way of configuring multiple security providers in Tomcat 
5.0 and go through them in the authentication process?  If this is 
possible could anybody point me to a configuration exemple?

Many thanks for your help.

Tom
