Ranier - Thanks for the reply. I have some questions on your response. The
INT value that your get_server_value method returns how do I determine from
that what the userid is and more importantly, what calls this method and
populates the values for this method to run?
Sorry for the ignorance.
Sorry the code snippet wasn' actually meant to be included. i tried to
answer your question below the original post.
The function is used internally, and the int value is only a return code
(success or not). The function returns a string the the provided buffer
"buf", but that's all opaque to you. Check again for what I wrote below
your original post.

Thanks again.

I just got IIS to forward my request to Tomcat using the Apache
Tomcat-Connectors doc.
I am trying to authenticate the user login/id that executes the request
to
my web app to be able to grab the user login and use in my java app.
Has anyone on this list setup a server environment variable in the
workers.properties file that would equal the
REQUEST.SERVERVARIABLE(AUTH_USER) in IIS?
Can I get the same thing from the HttpServletRequest object by using the
getRemoteUser method when the request is made from IIS?
Any help here would be appreciated.
The source says: we forward GetServerVariable of "REMOTE_USER" to
Tomcat. in order to let Tomcat trust the forwarded auth data, you have
to set tomcatAuthentication="false" as an attribute on the connector
element in server.xml.
Microsoft docs say: AUTH_USER:
The name of the user as it is derived from the authorization header sent
by the client, before the user name is mapped to a Windows account. This
variable is no different from REMOTE_USER. If you have an authentication
filter installed on your Web server that maps incoming users to
accounts, use LOGON_USER to view the mapped user name.

Rainer
