What am I looking for in order to get the username/password out of this? I'm using BASIC authentication. Are these credentials dumped somewhere that I could find them? I haven't been able to find that data in HttpSession?

I'm not going to waste time on approaches 1 and 3, as they're tomcat-specific. #2 will work: you will get the event, with access to the session, once the session is created. It has no attributes at that time, so any getAttribute call will return null. Perhaps you are really looking for a session attribute listener?
