Web app security not working

Question

Hi,
I am using WebLogic 8.1 platform. I am trying to create a very basic secure web
app.
I created an App and created a web project. In it, I deleted the controller, etc
and just have index. jsp. All the index.jsp does is: <%= request.getRemoteUser()
%>
In web.xml I have
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Success</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>*</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>default</realm-name>
</login-config>
<security-role>
<role-name>*</role-name>
</security-role>
In weblogic.xml I have
<security-role-assignment>
<role-name>dealers</role-name>
<principal-name>dealer1</principal-name>
</security-role-assignment>
When I run the app, it just renders the JSP and does not challenge me to login.
Can you please help what is that I am doing wrong here?
Thanks,
John

<auth-constraint>
<role-name>*</role-name>I think you should have dealers instead of *
</auth-constraint>

<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>default</realm-name>
</login-config>
<security-role>
<role-name>*</role-name>And here too.
</security-role>
