The problem is not with your authentication. It is sth wrong with the 
guvnor war ("*The requested resource (/guvnor-5.2.0.Final-jboss-as-5.1/) 
is not available.* ") you created. Take a look into the log file, it 
should give you more info.

BTW, you can deploy the exploded war directory directly into AS 5.1.
