OK... since it's my syntax, I'm happy to answer this particular 
question. In the RewriteCond statement, the last part is (.*), what 
that does is match on any value in the named HTTP header field 
(different than an environment variable set by Apache) and stores that 
value in a regular expression back-reference. That back-reference is 
used in the RewriteRule statement to set the value of the custom 
environment variable.

RewriteCond back-references are stored in %1-%9, while RewriteRule 
back-references are stored in $1-$9.

Now, that's pretty much the only part of your message I can really 
answer. As has been stated by others, setting the REMOTE_USER value in 
this manner should not work...
