          Priority: P2
            Bug ID: 54141
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
           Summary: Configuration does not allow Realms to be nested more
                    than 2 levels deep
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Mac OS X 10.4
          Reporter: ch...@christopherschultz.net
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
           Version: 7.0.32
         Component: Catalina
           Product: Tomcat 7

The use case is to have one Realm that is configured for lock-out with another
that is not: the two should be combined together.

The obvious configuration attempt is this:

<CombinedRealm>
  <LockoutRealm>
     <DataSourceRealm/>
  </LockoutRealm>
  <UserDatabaseRealm/>
</CombinedRealm>

Unfortunately, this configuration yields an error:

  No rules found matching 'Server/Service/Engine/Realm/Realm/Realm'

org.apache.catalina.startup.RealmRuleSet.addRuleInstances only goes 2 levels
deep when it comes to Realms (that is, only allows "Realm" and "Realm/Realm").
Adding a 3rd level would certainly work here and might be sufficient. Another
option would be to configure the digester to allow arbitrary levels of
Realm-nesting for even the most pathological cases.
