I am using tomcat 3.2 & want to use form based authentication
But to authenticate the user I want to connect to a database instead of
tomcat-users.xml
How can I do this?

There's an example for using oracle in server.xml - you're looking for the JDBCRealm bit.
Follow the instructions in the 3.2 documentation. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.2-doc/JDBCRealm.howto
