Sorry for the misleading.  You are right Jeanfrancois.  Thank you for
pointing this out.

If only user name needed, try getRemoteUser().
If principal(user) object needed, try getUserPrincipal().

Michael

I think you are wrong. What he is looking for is:

HttpServletRequest.getUserPrincipal() that return the 
java.security.Principal object created within the Realm.
