JNDIRealm and HTTP Digest authentication

[Alexis Hassler]

Hi Tomcat devs,

I've read an old mail (2007) about JNDIRealm and Digest authentication. I
had the same problem, and made my own workaround by implementing
getPAssword in a subclass. (see
https://github.com/Sewatech/swutils/blob/master/tc-utils/src/main/java/fr/sewatech/tcutils/realm/LdapRealm.java
).

Is there any reason why this has not be done in JNDIRealm ?

Shoul I propose a patch with my getPassword method ?

Hi Roel,

Both classes are in the same package. That means that they're allowed to
access public+protected+package-private members.
