Different j_username and getRemoteUser

[jits_1998]

Hi,
I have a JAAS implementation in jboss. On the login page the user enters a login id = xxx. After j_security_check I would like the request.getRemoteUser() to return a different value. Please tell me how to accomplish this.

Basically we are using LDAP authentication and the user should enter only xxx from uid=xxx,ou=people,dc=company,dc=com. But when anywhere later in the application, we want to call getRemoteUser() it should give us full distinguishing name (dn) i.e. uid=xxx,ou=people,dc=company,dc=com.

Please anyone guide me to achieve this.

Thanks in advance,
Jitendra
