SO what is the confusion??

User entered userName and password, check the data in database
on some simple query

Select password from db where user_name = userName;

String pwd = rs.getString(0);
if pwd == null
user does not exist.

Authentication failed.
if pwd!=password
password does not match

else proceed.

Simple algo...

u can make it complex as per ur requirement
