accessing user login info

[Astrid Wagner <r4...@email.sps.mot.com>]

Hi all,

How can I access user login information (userId and password) that has
been
entered via basic authentication in the web browser password box?
I use basic authentiacation using a LDAP URL (configured in httpd.conf)
Is the user login in information stored at all?
If yes, how can I retrieve the info in a servlet?
If no, what elegant ways do exist so I do not have to do all the
password
handling myself?

Thanks for your help,

Astrid
