The user name from httpd is used to populate the remote user name and the user principal and the user principal being set is what bypasses most of the authentication code. All of the authenticators will cache the Principal in the session if one exists but none of them (apart from FORM) should ever create one. The authenticator you will get will depend on whatever is in web.xml.
