I should have added that I also use the Struts tags <logic-el:present> and
<logic-el:notPresent> extensively w/o incident.

And w/ regards to the earlier problems I was having with Resin and
SecurityFilter: I tracked it down to serving my app at the same time on both
tomcat and Resin. It worked easier for me for cross-server debugging but
something somewhere down the line in Resin *really* didn't like it. I've
also upgraded to the 1.0 release of SecurityFilter and it gave me a huge
headache but of course it was user error. Appears there's stricter adherence
to the DTD. I had a superfluous name field that was causing a hiccup. After
removing that from the securityfilter-config file all been well.

Thanks for all the work, SecurityFilter team! I owe ya one.

Thanks for the feedback, Dan. It's always good to hear that things are
working as intended. :)

I should have paid more attention in English class, or Java class. :) The
method is supposed to be:
getUserPrincipal()
