This fragment isn't part of the configuration. It's just a sample output
created by the request-security processor. That processor is useful if
you want to get the name of the current authenticated user, for example
to load custom settings.

The authentication config is described here:
http://www.orbeon.com/orbeon/doc/reference-authentication#d12e20
and has to be placed into web.xml - depending on the authentication
mechanism, you may have to add a JNDI source to the context
configuration, for example when to use LDAP for authentication.
