Look at GAE: Configuring Your App's Authentication article. After configuring it you can check user using The Users Java API invoking:

UserService userService = UserServiceFactory.getUserService();
User user = userService.getCurrentUser();

This is the simplest way. There are many other. Like using OpenID described here: http://code.google.com/p/gwt-gae-book/wiki/Authentication

You can also create your own auth servlet filter wchich redirects users to userService.createLoginURL URL if needed.
