If you're protecting it with basic auth, request.getRemoteUser() will return the user name they typed in.

I was hoping that request.getParameter("username") would grab the username entered in the validation list dialog box and I could use it to pass them on to the URL. Does that make sense??

I did a similar thing not too long ago. What I have is: - A JSP for user name/password entry - A servlet to process the form. If it passed validation, I do a redirect to a URL otherwise, I do a forward back to the JSP page to show error messages. If you're doing all of this in the JSP, you should have access to a response object. One error that I see now that I've taken another look at this is that request.getRemoteUser() isn't going to return anything (you'll probably get 'null' returned) unless you password protect the JSP (and servlet if you're using one) using basic authentication which makes this redundant.

However, WEB is the host name, some genious decided to call it that. Basically I could take that URL and the value of request.getRemoteUser and go right to the URL. I am doing something wrong though, because WS doesn't like the way I am doing it......

Basically, the redirect URL has to be something that you could put in a web page as a hyperlink.

Something like this String redirectURL = "http://WEB/TEST/WFInvocation.do?inv=INV1&&USR=" + request.getRemoteUser; response.sendRedirect(redirectURL); Only thing I run into right now is that in WebSphere "request" is not known or valid. Or I am not doing it correctly. Any suggestions??? Thanks! Dave Reiher System Analyst Prairie Farms Dairy - Corporate Ph: 217.854.2547 ext. 254 dreiher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
