Hi,

As a Tomcat user and Java developer, I'd like to add a reply to 

http://markmail.org/thread/cipopgduels3d7yh

so first off, apologies this isn't a proper email reply, I just signed up to 
this list specifically to reply to that. Nice to see the list is so busy btw.

For #1, recording failed logins etc., my needs are met by using LockOutRealm 
and configuring to record accesses in the log.

However, I'd like to add a really strong vote for #2, more advanced 
authentication out of the box. We've been happy Tomcat users for a number of 
years and this is the only concern I have at the moment. My organisation 
provides software as a service for clients, in the servlet container. Most 
prospects and clients are rightly very concerned about security and we do as 
much as we can to mitigate risks. With the recent high profile hacks of the 
hashed password lists of e.g. LinkedIn and eHarmony, this is on my mind a bit!

That's my 2p, many thanks
