Configuring different auth-methods for different “folders” in a single .war

Question

I would like to create a single .war that contains both a web based FORM login for a web GUI AND BASIC authentication (in this case, for a web service interface.)

 /index.html (unsecured welcome page)
 +---/interactive (folder containing web pages using auth-method=FORM)
 +---/service (servlet mapping for web service using auth-method=BASIC)

I don't see a way to configure such a setup in the web.xml file. It appears that login-config can not appear inside a security-config and that it only allows a single auth-method globally for the .war.

Answer 1

The solution was to create two .war submodules and package them in an .ear file.
