The username and password used to login are available in the
User object, which can be obtained from RunData.  How you in
turn use these to obtain access to a remote app is a problem
in Java network programming inside your portlet.

Subject: portlet - security proxy?

I am looking for information on how portlet can 
authenticate user for remote service using 
the same credentials that he/she logged with 
in the portal. Like a portlet that connects to 
email/web space site and retrieves the data
given the password and id are identical with
the portal's. If you have any links or info please 
email. Thanks,
Dannie
