Hi,

Today, I did
 (i) install kaffe 2:1.1.4.PRE1.1.5-11 (+ depends)
 (ii) install tomcat4{,-admin} 4.1.30-6 (+ depends)
 (iii) create a user with roles 'admin' and 'manager' as indicated on
       http://localhost:8180/
 (iv) enter and authenticate with http://localhost:8180/manager/html

Of course, might be a bug in kaffe.
