When the user logs in, is it under a diff context than where the flex apps
resides?

Subject: [flexcoders] flex and j2ee session

ok, a oft beat about topic I know.  Porting a Flex 1.5 app over to 2.0.
Using Tomcat.  Under 1.5 I got the session in a remoteobject POJO like
this

flashgateway.Gateway.getHttpRequest().getUserPrincipal().getName();

For the new Flex 2 version I'm using

FlexContext.getFlexSession().getUserPrincipal().getName();

but this is bombing out.   I'm using container based security with BASIC
auth for development.  I'm not trying to log a user in with a Flex UI,
user
is already logged in before the Flex UI comes up.

Something I'm missing somewhere?
