The table used in the DataSourceRealm can contain more than just the
user's credentials. Expand the schema to include all the info. When
they login, just query the database for the remaining info.
request.getRemoteUser() provide's the username of the client. A request
filter would be ideal for this.

I have a site that uses Tomcat's form based authentication. It reads
from a MySQL db using a 'DataSourceRealm' defined in the context.xml
file. All well and good.
What Im hoping to achieve is creation of a session bean with info
about the logged in account when a valid login is sent. Is there a
value in context.xml, web.xml or other that I can enter / trap /
override?
Im using TC5.
