Getting values of Local Environment Variables in Servlets using Tomcat3.2.1 ?

[Kashyap Vaswani <ka...@stanford.edu>]

We are having problems getting the values  the local CGI environment 
variables in our servlets  using Tomcat3.2. It works fine with Jserv and 
the we are able to export these variables using  Jserv.   But we are not 
able to do that with Tomcat3.2.1. These variables are being set by 
authentication system and we are able to retrieve them through simple 
cgi/perl script as well.  We are able to get the values of these 
variables in Jserv using ---

Object attrsObj = req.getAttribute("org.apache.jserv.attribute_names");
Is there    some equivalent method or some other way of getting local 
environment variables in Tomat3.2.1 by changing either  the source code 
or configuration files ?
