Hi ALL!
    How could I display the Remote User on to the velocity Template.

Samir,
I assume that your application lives in a Servlet environment:
HttpServletRequest offers method getRemoteUser() to retrieve the login
name of the authenticated user. So, put the request instance into the
context and add the following expression to your template:

$request.getRemoteUser()

Note: This assumes that the request has been added to the context
with key "request"
Note 2: getRemoteUser() returns null if the user is not authenticated.
