Unfortunately for you, i see nothing in specs about keeping POST
information during a form based login. So this feature may be tomcat
specific only. It may be also that the tomcat connector keep POST datas
only for "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" and makes it available
using getParameter()... Also, if anything before Post saving do call
getParameters(), the Reader is not available anymore because it has been
consumed by call to getParameters() (used for Post content parsing).
So you should probably consider this impossible to do :) OOr ask the
tomcat devs about this ^ ^

Thanks David, that helps.
Something seem to go wrong for me though. I guess my question was not
sufficiently exact.
The data is posted as "application/xml" and the servlet consumes it using
request.getReader().read(...) The thing is that when the authentication
process completes and redirects the original post to the servlet, the
request.getReader().read(...) immediately returns -1. The data is in the
buffer alright, but the pointer into the buffer is not positioned at the
beginning. I have tried adding a reset but that does not seem to help.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

They are automatically saved by form authentification system and
restored after form authentification. Your servlet won't be able to make
the difference between a direct hit and a hit with post restored after
form authentification.
Please note, however, that the size of post request saved by tomcat is
limited by default to 4K. If it's bigger, your servlet will get an empty
request. To increase that size, go to Http connector configuration of
tomcat, and change or set the maxSavePostSize.

Hello,
When a user posts data to a servlet after the session has expired
(timeout)
tomcat automatically redirects to my login page. After successful login,
tomcat will redirect to the original request.
I am looking for way to access the originally posted data when it
'arrives'
in the servlet (after tomcat has redirected after the login).
Any guidance or pointers would be most warmly welcomed!
Thanks,
Peter
