Hi Davide, thanks for the help. > There aren't methods for these, you have to read the request headers. > With Basic HTTP Authentication you have a header named "Authorization" > that should contains something like this: > BASIC d2VibWFzdGVyOnRyeTJndWVTUw
> The string following "BASIC " is encoded with Base64 and contains > username:password. Uuh. Is there no java package managing that stuff? tomcat also must know how to decode it. So there should be something. Do you know how to decode base64? I found it in rfc2045 but actually I can not imagine that java doesn't provide something to decode it. I did a find -exec grep over the whole api javadoc, but could only find stuff that wants parameters base64 encoded. Nothing to decode it.
