Bert, thanks again......

I'll certainly view these docs lateron but what I am actually looking for is
a way to retrieve (nt)userid from the servlet code. THe getRemoteUser()
gives null back. I am wondering if something is wrong with my server
configuration since I can view the remote IP address but not the hostname
and (nt) login name which I need.

Can you (or anyone) help me with that?

I would really appreciate it.

thx

SeJo
