There are many ways to do this :
1st Method
----------------
If the username/password combination has been verified to be ok by
verification.jsp, then before sending it to main.jsp, you can add the
username to the session (HttpSession) and retrieve it from main.jsp using :
String username = String.valueOf(session.getValue("username.session"));
Once you've retrieved the username in your jsp as a string, then either use
a setUsername() setter method to pass the value to your bean (which is
nothing but a method, as you want) or directly call the method using the
bean [UrbeanName.yourmethod(username)]
2nd Method
-----------------
You can pass it as a hidden form field from verification.jsp to main.jsp
