Yes it's easy, you just need to add
tomcatAuthentication="false"
Onto your AJP Connector element in server.xml
Then, calls to request.getRemoteUser() will contain the username.
Alternatively, you can also add jCIFs to your web application but that requires
web.xml configuration to specify you
You may use request.getRemoteUser() to have domain and userid returned as a
String object.
Just add tomcatAuthentication="false" to the Connector element in your
server.xml file.
By the way - Tomcat is NOT a full J2EE server but a Servlet container (is does
not support EJBs for instance)
