Tomcat 4 Realms and MySQL

Hello. I would like to be able to use a MySQL table for my user authentication instead of the unencryptable tomcat-users.xml.  I have looked for this documentation, but have yet to find it.  Anyone have ideas/knowledge they care to impart?

Apress publishing company has a book that deals with this topic called "Apache Jakarta-Tomcat" (I forget the authors name but if you go to Amazon.com you will find it).  Basically you define your mySQL schema into the Realm section for your virtual server.  Then you comment out the MemoryRealm, it doesn't work to have both defined.  The book deals specifically with mySQL.  With the info in the book I was able to get mine working with PostgreSQL.  Good luck.
