Hi Christopher,
Thanks for your fast answer.
I'm quite new with Tomcat and HTTP. But as you said, Geoserver is taking care
of the authentication itself. So this is the problem and we are not able to log
the username in the access logs. I think we have to focus then on the Geoserver
own logging.
With best regards
Ville Jussila

Is it possible that Geoserver is using its own built-in HTTP Basic
authentication instead of having Tomcat handle authentication? If so, Tomcat
knows nothing about the user, etc. and can't log anything about them in the
access log.
