Access Apache server variables from Tomcat code?

[William R Briggs <wr...@us.ibm.com>]

Hi all,

A somewhat random question that I have been unable to find the answer to - 
I have a setup using Tomcat 5.0.16 w/ Apache 1.3.28.  I am using a custom 
Apache  module that is internal to my company in order to perform user 
authentication.  This module exports certain values into the server 
environment.  Using PHP, I can access the values like so: 
$_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'].

Is there an equivalent I can use from my servlet/jsp code within Tomcat to 
access this environment information?

Thanks,
Will
