We have a requirement to password protect access to the Endeca JSP reference application. I have already enabled SSL but what is a secure way to add password protection?

There are numerous ways to secure a J2EE application. By enabling SSL I assume you've modified the web.xml in the [TOOLS_AND_FRAMEWORK_HOME]\11.1.0\reference\endeca_jspref\WEB-INF folder.

To add basic authentication into the J2EE application you need to create a couple of forms and modify the web.xml again. A complete example of doing this can be found here.
