WWW-Authentication with Tomcat

[shahed <sh...@enoor.com>]

How can I do a www-authentication with a jsp page ?
I tried to set a header in the response of a page, and that 
bought up the popup uid/pwd window, but how do I get the 
values back ?

Thanks
Shahed

You need to set up the web-app to require authentication.  In the 
web.xml in the WEB-APP directory you need to add a security-constraint 
element and a login-config element.  There are examples in the examples 
web-app.
