           Summary: user-agent header is null immediately after CMA login
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.5.12
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Connector:HTTP
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


When processing the page immedately after a successful container managed
authentication "login", the user-agent header is NULL. If I refresh the page or
go to other pages, the user-agent header is rendered properly.

I have discussed this issue on the tomcat-user list for a number of days,
thinking it must be something I had done wrong,

Here are the steps:

1) Request a protected page from my application.
2) My CMA login page pops up, I enter userid and password.
3) This POST is issued when I submit it:
     POST /stars/auth/ j_username=user1&j_password=password1&login=Login
4) HTTPLiveHeaders show all of the GET requests have a user-agent set
   (I've included all 90 lines of them below).
5) My page that appears has the following code:
  <%
  String _userAgent = request.getHeader("user-agent");
  out.write("USER-AGENT="+_userAgent);
  ...
6) And displays the following on my page:
  USER-AGENT=null

START OF HTTPLiveHeaders capture from the above POST:
