Is it possible to have some pages in the web app accessible through BASIC authentication and some through form authentication? What would my web.xml look like then? I have tried to configure this but the DTD doesnt seem to allow something like this.
Thanks,
Blair

Hello !
I think it is not possible via declaration in "web.xml", because of the DTD and the spec.
But it is possible to program it by yourself. The HTTP-Headerinformation of the authentication is visible to the Java-WebApp via the request object (getHeader(...)).
Greetings from Germany,
Stefan
