Container Managed authentication question

[struts Dude <sc...@slingshot.co.nz>]

hi
Using container managed authentication, can i relay request parameters(i.e.
username & password) to
loginAction after successful authentication?

Because I want to construct a User bean and add it to Session after
successful authentication
but request parameters seem to get lost.


Thanks

You can get the user's name using request.getUserPrincipal().getName(); 
however, for security reasons, you cannot get the user's password. If 
you must have the password, then you may need to use application-managed 
security (or SecurityFilter).
