If you use LDAP you can use LDAP with PAM and apparently configure
Tomcat to talk to LDAP as well

http://blog.mc-thias.org/?title=tomcat_ldap_authentication&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

"Using Tomcat6 (Tomcat 6.0.13 to be precise ;)) on CentOS 4.5, a LDAP
authentication can be set up using the JNDI Realm."[..]

Same for if your using a SQL DB for authentication, tomcat can
tie into that too -
