Thread-topic: [cinjug-users] getRemoteUser( ) and Basic authentication
The definitive answer is to check the Servlet Spec:
http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/reference/api/index.html

However, since as far as Servlets are concerned, your means of
authentication is divorced from the concept of a HTTP Session, I don't
think there any vendor neutral way of accomplishing this.
