Hi, 

It's possible to understand your question in two different ways, so I answer in two 
different ways.

First answer : 
  If you are running tomcat as a service you should be able to see which user it is 
that runs it (from the services dialog). If you are not running it as service it is 
using the nt user that starts it.

Second answer : 
I dont know if there is any NT-authentication realm with tomcat, but still, it's 
always possible to implement one, by implementing the interface   
org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase. I guess I would use JAAS to access the 
user-accounts in NT. 
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/security/jaas/tutorials/index.html
If you are using ADSI-userbase (or Exchange 5.5 or newer) you might want to check out 
JNDI access over LDAP to ADSI. In that context you might want to take a look at 
JNDIRealm.

I suggest you read http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/realm-howto.html


hope it helps
