If both sites/webapps run in the same Tomcat container, look into
the SingleSingOn Valve (that may be a typo, watch out).  That's
Tomcat-specific, though, and it forces you to put both apps in the same
JVM.

Otherwise, you're outside of the scope of the servlet spec.  Look into
writing your own such framework or finding some third-party (free or
otherwise) implementation.

The former would require a fair amount of thought and design if it's
going to be robust.  (Sharing auth info is already a sizable task;
sharing session-like data is another challenge.)  Ask yourself going in
whether it's even worth the work.

For the latter, I haven't seen any such free/open-source products, so
you may end up paying for a commercial app.
