Hi, Just wanted to add one thing :
If I remember correctly, IIS only returns remoteUser on the authenticating request. If you want to use it's userid, you must grabb that in the first request and put it into the session, and use it from there afterwards.
If my understanding of the matter is correct, the NTLM (windows intergrated authentication) the connection is authenticated, but not the request as usual, there for the userid is not sent (by the client usually MS Internet Explorer) when the connection has been authenticated. Then this connection is held untill the browser disconnects, or the server disconnects it. That's why you only get the userid on the authenticating request (first request into the realm).
hope it helps [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I can't get the 'remote user' information in my web application. I think that is some wrong configuration. Can you send me workers2.properties and jk2.properties example files?
Thanks

Yes it does.
request.getRemoteUser() in your JSP gives you the IIS authenticated user. Make sure your IIS is set to Integrated Windows authentication and insert request.tomcatAuthentication=false in your jk2.properties file.

Hi
Does JK2 connector pass a security information to Tomcat, like the authenticated user? I coudn't find any information about this in JK2 documentation. In my project, I need that the IIS authenticates the users, and then, the Tomcat executes my web application with users and roles information.
Thanks
