I have a new instllation of tomcat on centos. My $CATALINA_HOME is /usr/share/tomcat5 and tomcat is running.
http://localhost:8080 brings up the tomcat page & one of the option is "Administration". I would like to use this web interface and even give some of the test webapp users ability to restart tomcat.
According to the home page, users are defined in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml. Currently my file has the following content more tomcat-users.xml <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <tomcat-users> <role rolename="tomcat"/> <role rolename="role1"/> <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/> <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/> <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/> </tomcat-users> I tried logging to the administration web interface with tomcat/tomcat but it did not work. Can anyone guide to configure this file? I am very new to tomcat.
Thank you.

Are you new to tomcat? If so it would be in your best interested to read:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/manager-howto.html
The apache foundation provides extensive documentation for Tomcat. It is a wealth of knowledge.
From the page above:
"The username and password you enter do not matter, as long as they identify a valid user in the users database who possesses the role *manager*."
Thank you.
