[users@httpd] ssl environment mod_rewrite

[allan@xxxxxxx]

hi i want to bypass a cgi script via possibly mod_rewrite.

basically i want to forward a ssl client cettificate to a reversed 
proxied backend, and
this is possible via a cgi script.

but it would be nice if one could do the same for instance via 
mod_rewrite envirionment
variable or appended to a proxied query string

im was surprised to find that not all environment variables are 
available in mod_rewrite
(is that correct ?)

but even if i can get to the %{SSL_SERVER_CERT}} i need to escape the 
newlines in the
value because neither a URL og header value can contain such a character

i have tried things like:
RequestHeader set FORWARD_CERT %{SSL_SERVER_CERT}e

(which will end up with an invalid header because of newlines)

and

RewriteMap    escapeMe    int:escape
RewriteRule ^/.* http://localhost:8080/$1 \
[proxy,last,E=FORWARD_CERT:b${escapeMe:%{SSL_CLIENT_CERT}}]

or

RewriteMap    escapeMe    int:escape
RewriteRule ^/.* \ 
http://localhost:8080/$1?FORWARD_CERT=${escapeMe:%{SSL_CLIENT_CERT}} \
[proxy,last]


neither works.
anyone have aany idea to do this without a cgi, if possible at all ?

thanks
