Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200805221203) Java: 1.6.0_10-beta; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.0-b11 System: Linux version 2.6.22-14-generic running on i386; UTF-8; en_US (nb) Steps to reproduce: 1. Start NetBeans. Install Glassfish V2 and Apache Tomcat 6 so that you see both in the Services view. Make sure you set the usernames and passwords at this point. 2. Change Tomcat password to some invalid value using the Properties window (invoked via pop-up menu) OPTIONAL STEP (result depends on whether you do this or not): Start Glassfish 3. Start Tomcat (maybe you will have to go to properties and change the default port 8080 to some other one). 4. Expand the Tomcat nodes in services view -> YOU DID OPTIONAL STEP: A dialog prompting for username and password is shown. -> YOU DIDN'T DO THE STEP: A warning dialog is displayed. See the screenshots.

the gf integration plugin installs a dialog to let the user recover from situations where there is an authorization failure. I think that is a better choice then telling the user to go someplace else to fix the problem... the Tomcat server integration should be improved to behave in a manner similar to that of the GF plugin
I still think this is a defect, as the issue is not about different behavior of Tomcat from Glassfish, but about different behaviour of Tomcat (when GF is running) from the very same Tomcat (when GF is not running)... (Do the steps from the first description, once with the optional step and once without it...). If this is really just an enhancement, I think it is worth to increase a priority, as ENHANCEMENT+P3=not(IMPLEMENTED)....
This seems to be already fixed in current builds.
I am not able to reproduce the issue in 200809170201 - if someone still experience it, please reopen. Verified for now.
