Howdy,

>jaas.jar is no longer present in server/lib/ as it was in Tomcat 4.x.

Small correction there: it was in server/lib for tomcat 4.1.x, not
4.0.x.

I doubt it was an oversight, as it takes some effort to drop a jar from
our distribution. But I don't see much documentation for it. And I
know the JAAS Realm and associated JAASMemoryLoginModule are still
present in the distribution. I also know tomcat has been built on JDK
1.4 for a while now, so the absence of the jaas.jar would necessarily by
detected. I'll investigate a bit more. Thanks for bringing this up.
All you had to do is place jaas.jar in server/lib (or the jre/ext
directory I assume) ?
