Actually, what I finally got working was getting IIS to talk to Tomcat and therefore seeing the request get to the ISAPI filter which after working with a MS IIS engineer 2 weeks ago I was able to get up and running. I have not to date been able to get the getRemoteUser() to extract the user value info that ISAPI shows in its log. That is the issue. In the previous posts this morning I showed what the getHeaderNames() provided but it has an encrypted NTLM value. I thought I could get at the user value that ISAPI show by executing the getRemoteUser() but I'm still getting a NULL value.
Pid suggested using a Base64Decoder but I thought the ISAPI filter would provide that for me. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Rainer Jung [mailto:rainer.j...@kippdata.de] Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 2010 8:16 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Still having problem retrieving user value from ISAPI Filter for authentication On 22.06.2010 14:16, Savoy, Melinda wrote: > Thanks Marc.

Andre or > Ranier, if you guys are out there, your response would be appreciated. I thought you already managed to have a situation, where getRemoteUser() returned something meaningful. So what's the difference to the situation now?
