when i use request.getRemoteUser(), it returns null value. I don't see GenericPrincipal, only GenericCredential interface in API.
what i want to do is get first the login username then verify it in active directory if it exists... thanks -----Original Message----- From: Keith Bottner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2004 9:48 AM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: how to get user login? That is really an opened ended question. Are you talking about getting the username and password if you use SingleSignOn? If so then you would do request.getUserPrincipal() cast it to a GenericPrincipal and do a getName and getPassword. If you are using a roll your own then just have your JSP handle it? Or are you specifically looking for the ActiveDirectory hook to tie SingleSignOn into Tomcat? Sorry, I raised more questions.
