That is logically impossible. If a client hasn't authenticated there is no user associated with the request and therefore no user name. > Does the web server know the login id of windows? Windows is an operating system. It doesn't have a have a "login id". Users (and other entities) do. I assume you mean "Does Tomcat know the Windows user name of the user making the current request?". Again, simply not possible without authentication. The closest you'll get to what you are looking for is this: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/windows-auth-howto.html Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
