> Talked with Ron Sigal and he thinks we might have to explicitly use the Servlet transport (i.e. the CoyoteInvoker might not be configurable for BASIC auth).
> Here's what Ron said exactly.....
> "1. HTTPServerInvoker is obsolete.  It's been replaced  by CoyoteInvoker.
> 2. According to my O'Reilly Tomcat book, BASIC authorization is configured in the web.xml file by the <login-config> element.  But CoyoteInvoker doesn't use the full Tomcat implementation, just the Coyote adapter.  I'm really not sure if the Coyote adapter has anything to do with the web.xml file.
> 3. There is another Remoting transport, the servlet transport, which really does use Tomcat.  It uses a servlet as a front end to the server invoker.  There's even a web.xml file: src\etc\web\web.xml in the Remoting project directory."
