We have our first JSP based app going into final testing. The JSP uses calls to 
stored procedures to access the database and so must make a connection to the 
database and provide a userid and password. The website being developed is 
setup in Apache to require OS/400 userids and passwords. Is there any way to 
use the Apache authenticated userid and password to make the connection to the 
database or is the only option to create a special userid and password to be 
used by the JSPs ? I would like to still be able to use journaling to record 
who is accessing the database.
