Here are a couple of minor updates for the NTLM filter documentation:

1)  In the "Non MSIE Clients and 'Basic' Authentication" section, Mozilla 1.6+
supports NTLM authentication (although not "silently", i.e. it will prompt for
credentials).

2)  Under the "Tomcat" section, this behavior is exhibited because Tomcat
validates the web.xml against the deployment descriptor DTD.  Containers
which don't validate the descriptor will likely accept elements "out of order",
but this is a Bad Thing (as your web application will not be deployable on
strictly conformant containers).  The Servlet 2.3 deployment descriptor DTD is
at:

    http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd
