Thanks RainerI have no option but to fix the scripts, as I can't change the Apache installation on a shared server. The fix to each cgi script is easy, but the volume of scripts makes it a significant task. Best I get on with it then!

But, REMOTE_USER must be set by Apache, even if it is late in the sequence, so where/how can I get at it?ap_add_common_vars() sets REMOTE_USER from r->user, and practically nothing happens between then and the execution of the cgi script (assuming you're using mod_cgi, I haven't checked anything else). So it looks like your options are - change the environment variable in the CGI process itself - write an apache module to remove the leading zeroes - possibly use mod_lua rainer
