In HF servlet & JSP(CH 12) it is given that to configure tomcat-user.xml file but i am using netbeans 6.7 and tomcat 6 is in built in it so where can i search for tomcat-user.xml file through netbeans???

when i add thse lines in tomcat-user.xml

 <role rolename="Admin"/>
  <role rolename="Member"/>
  <role rolename="Guest"/>
  <user username="Annie" password="admin" roles="Admin, Member, Guest"/>
  <user username="Diane" password="coder" roles="Member, Guest"/>
  <user username="Ted" password="newbie" roles="Guest"/>   

and in web.xml

  <security-role><role-name>Admin</role-name></security-role>
  <security-role><role-name>Member</role-name></security-role>
  <security-role><role-name>Guest</role-name></security-role>
<login-config>
  <auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
</login-config>
<security-constraint>

     <web-resourse-collection>
	   <web-resourse-name>Update</web-resourse-name>

	   <url-pattern>/util/*</url-pattern>

	   <http-method>GET</http-method>
	   <http-method>POST</http-method>
	 </web-resourse-collection>
	 <auth-constraint>
	   <role-name>Admin</role-name>
	   <role-name>Member</role-name>
	 </auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>  

Netbeans gives the following error -

Incrementally deploying http://localhost:8084/WebApplication2
Completed incremental distribution of http://localhost:8084/WebApplication2

Start is in progress...

C:\Documents and Settings\vinit\My Documents\NetBeansProjects\WebApplication2\nbproject\build-impl.xml:572: The module has not been deployed.

Vendor-specific configurations are not in the scope of SCWCD. Moving to the Tomcat forum...

You can find the tomcat-uses.xml in the 'conf' directory, which is a sub directory of the Tomcat Home directory.
