The easiest way to do this with Tomcat7 is:
1. Install the manager app, and set up roles in
conf/tomcat-users.xml
2. A UserDatabaseRealm should already be defined in
conf/server.xml
3. Depending on how you installed Solr, there should be a folder
like webapps/solr/WEB-INF/ . In that folder, edit web.xml, and
add <security-constraint> and <security-role> tags. The entries
for the latter should match the entries in step 1.
