TomCat network authentication in Windows Domain

Hi List,
    I have run in to a problem that I can't track down.  In my intranet application I can't get a servlet to retreive any file system objects that do not have read-only access for everyone even though the same code allows me to access these objects using the same JVM on the same machine through a regular application.  I am wondering if TomCat uses its own security settings somehow to access these resources through a servlet?  This is beyond the scope of this list, but in general how does the JVM authenticate with a W2K domain?  Does it authenticate as the user logged in to the server the JVM is running on?  I can't find a lot on this topic.  At any rate--maybe someone can help me with what is going on with TomCat and accessing network resources.  Surprisingly, I haven't found any discussions on this.  Any help--GREATLY appreciated.  I am totally stumped and don't know where to go from here.  --Aaron
