Working in Eclipse on a Dynamic Web Project (using Tomcat (v5.5) as the app server), is there some way I can configure things so Tomcat will start with security turned on (i.e. as if I ran catalina.sh start -security)?

Go into ‘Window’ -> ‘Preferences’ then select ‘Java’ -> ‘Installed JREs’, clone the JRE used by Tomcat and add the following to the default VM Arguments
With XXXX replaced by the appropriate path – Mine was
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5). Then change the JRE name (I added ‘security enabled’ to the end) and click ‘Finish’.After that, open ‘Server’ -> ‘Runtime Environments’ in the preferences, and select your Apache Tomcat environment, then click the ‘Edit…’ button. In the resulting window, select the new security enabled JRE, then click ‘Finish’ and restart Tomcat.
