it only collects the username of the logged in user yes, not ad info.

not sure if this is true, but ensure integrated windows security is on the 
virtual jakarta folder pointed to the jk dll too. i'm not sure if your 
situation is muddied by jboss in the mix, as i am not familiar with jboss (yet)

not sure what else to tell you .. i've tested taking off WIS on my website, and 
the remote user goes blank. this is a tried and tested method, so something 
else must be getting in the way your end.

cheers
