I found the solution.

Firstly, extract the contents of solr.war in the example/webapps folder. Then create a file called .htaccess and place it in the example/webapps/solr folder (the one you just extracted) containing the following:

    satisfy all
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

In example/etc/ edit the jetty.xml file and comment out the org.mortbay.jetty.deployer.WebAppDeployer part. Then finally create a folder in example/ called contexts (if one does not yet exist) and add a file called solr.xml to it containing:

    /webapps/solr
    /solr
    
        
            
                
                    
                
            
        
    

Then start up your new secure solr!
