Fork as 'REMOTE_USER' instead of 'User'

[Mickaël CANÉVET <canevet@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'd like to know if there is a way to tell apache httpd to fork as
'REMOTE_USER' instead of 'User' variable defined in httpd.conf.

The idea is to export a filesystem through HTTP (Dav), and instead of
giving apache's user read/write access on the files and play
with .htaccess for each folder, let apache fork as the authenticated
user so that I can use POSIX rights to give access.

Thanks in advance for your answers.
Mickaël
