Thanks David, that helps.

Something seem to go wrong for me though. I guess my question was not
sufficiently exact.

The data is posted as "application/xml" and the servlet consumes it using
request.getReader().read(...) The thing is that when the authentication
process completes and redirects the original post to the servlet, the
request.getReader().read(...) immediately returns -1. The data is in the
buffer alright, but the pointer into the buffer is not positioned at the
beginning. I have tried adding a reset but that does not seem to help.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Peter
