#2 Implement catalina authenticator
Currently it is not possible to deploy an application which has <auth-method>NEGOTIATE</auth-method> defined, as Tomcat deployer requires that appropriate org.apache.catalina.Authenticator is registered in the context. The workaround it to say in META-INF/context.xml:
<Context>
<!-- This dummy authenticator to let Tomcat to think, that any authentication is supported: -->
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.authenticator.NonLoginAuthenticator" />
</Context>
