Hi, I am trying to setup an architecture where portlets communicate with servlets that are independent from the portal, using AJAX. In this context, I need to ensure that the logged-in user is the one sending the request (encode the username in the AJAX request), and upon reception of the request in the servlet, ensure that this user is currently logged-in to the portal. So my two questions are: - How do I access the currently logged-in users from the servlet ? - How do I encode the username in the AJAX request ? Thanks for your advice, Jonas View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3988918#...
