I'm not completely sure what you are looking for but I think following
will help:
- Configure the web application to use SPNEGO authentication
<login-config>
<auth-method>SPNEGO</auth-method>
<realm-name>SPNEGO Realm</realm-name>
</login-config>
- Configure the web application to require authorisation for all
resources and accept any authenticated user as authorised
<security-constraint>
<display-name>Require user authentication only</display-name>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Everything</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>**</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
You can then obtain the authenticated Principal via getUserPrincipal()
If you cast the principal to TomcatPrincipal you can call getGssCredential()
