The next release of Tomcat 6 will include a new valve (RemoteIpValve) to
do exactly this. If you can't wait for the next 6.0.x release (should be
soon - hopefully next week or so) then you can always use that as the
basis to write your own valve. Alternatively, Tomcat 7 also has a filter
that does the same thing that you could use as a startign point.
