Actually I have tried that and it doesn't work.  One of the problems is that
class is visible to Tomcat only.  I tried placing a copy of the jar in the
common/lib area and get classloading problems.  I am not sure how to make
that work.  If you have any other ideas I would appreciate it.

Thanks for your help.

Have you tried access it from the Principal.

GenericPrincipal p = (GenericPrincipal)request.getUserPrincipal();

String uid = p.getName();
String passwd = p.getPassword();
