SOLVED! RE: Why request.getRemoteUser() returns NULL ?
I found it!
Thanks to Akash Kava..
to get User: request.getHeader("IIS-REMOTE-USER");
to get Host: request.getHeader("IIS-REMOTE-ADDR");
if you're using Tomcat+IIS thru jspisapi filter..
it make use of NTLM authentication...
no need for jcifs filter.. no need to change server.xml or web.xml or
jk2.properties...
Thanks Akash!!!
Also watch out for JWEBEX (JWX)... it will replace JSP...
It has features of .NET!
Fast coding, auto login, auto integration with IIS, it will replace jsp,
it can be used with existing tomcat without any new changes
yes! go JAVA!

Hi,
Ah! tomcatAuthentication=false is configured in JK2 which is what I am
using - JK2 ISAPI filter for IIS ...
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/connectors-doc/jk2/jk2/installhowto.htm
l
Perhaps this is a problem with your Jspisapi filter. Try changing to
JK2.
You do not need JCIFS since IIS will automatically put the Windows
authenticated user into the request.
