To retrieve the user name once they are logged in.

request.getUserPrincipal().getName();

My understanding of the Tomcat 4 JDBC Realm is that you don't get to 
access it from within your application. Only Tomcat gets to access it. 
However, the servlet 2.3 spec provides APIs whereby you can get the 
username that the user logged in under and then use that to find any 
information you need about that user.

Not sure what you are trying to accomplish, but I hope that might help a 
little.
