4.1.7b admin application

[Martin Grebac <ma...@sun.com>]

Hi,
 I just installed the 4.1.7b, and was keen to see the admin application. 
Everything except admin app works ok, but I can't log into the 
application. I always get


  HTTP Status 403 - Access to the requested resource has been denied

I didn't know what's wrong, so I tried to look for some documentation 
for the app (especially what needs to be setup to make it running and 
what login should be used), but did not find anything. I'd appreciate 
any hints, or links to the docs.
 Thanks a lot,
  Martin

Before you can use the admin app, you have to set up a user with
role "admin" in the user database file (conf/tomcat-users.xml).  There is
no such user when Tomcat is first installed (for obvious security
reasons).
