Implement a checkLogin method in a base Action class that returns a User 
object or similar, whatever you need. This method takes an argument of 
type HttpServletRequest and looks for the User object in the request's 
HttpSession. Your Login Action would set this attribute, and your Logout 
Action would remove it.

Make all your actions extend the base Action class, then you can 
retrieve your User object (if there is one) from any Action. You can 
also access the objects in JSPs since they are just Session attributes. 
For example:

<logic:present scope="session" name="User_object_attribute_key">
  <!-- user apparently is logged in -->
</logic:present>

Hope that helps,

Erik
