Ah, OK, that completes the picture. I checked in tomcat code, that the
forwarded info is being used, but I saw, that only if some boolean flag
is not set. I didn't have the time to check where that flag comes from,
but your last post perfectly fits. So having that to false enables one
to read the user forwarded by mod_jk in the default servlet way without
using additional env vars.

Hello,
yeah, I thought of this too. But I only get a null value for
request.getRemoteUser(). Any idea what could be wrong? My mod_jk
version is mod_jk 1.2.19.
Cheers,
Pete

In this case, why not simply use (mini test jsp):
User: <%=request.getRemoteUser()%>
Oh, hey, that's a lot better. No config or anything ;) I didn't realize
that REMOTE_USER was already being forwarded without further
configuration.
Thanks for the clarification.
