If you are using basic authentication then yes jboss can help. You can write 
your own/extend the existing loginmodules to get the password. It will nto be 
encrypted. Even if you end up using SSL by the time the password reaches the 
login module it should be decrypted already. 

If you are using form based login, you can get the password even in tomcat. The 
easiest would be to put a filter to the j_security_check servlet. In the filter 
you can read j_password from the request.
