Package: tomcat6-admin
Version: 6.0.20-9
Severity: minor


Hi.

Once installed, http://localhost:8080/*manager/ ask for basic auth.

However, there's nothing in /usr/share/doc/tomcat6-admin to instruct the Debian user what to do to get access.

It seems to me that no user is configured by default and one has to to it by editing /etc/tomcat6/tomcat-users.xml, but it's not really obvious.

Thanks in advance to add a README.Debian to mention this.

Best regards,
