to transport some certificate information to your WebSphere can use: RequestHeader set "HTTP_USER_ID" %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_CN}eThe WebSphere Application now can authorize the user based on http header "HTTP_USER_ID", but your application must be able to.

Hello everyone!I've an apache 2.2 WebServer that is working as a reverse proxy for a WebSphere application server that is on a separate machine.Now I have a web application that need an information that is included in a client certificate field (OU).I would like to know if, with apache, is possible to obtain a configuration where the webserver requires the client cert but doesn't verify it and pass it to the application server that can verify it.I have such a configuration with IBM http Server. Here there is a directive in the http server configuration file that let you specify "passthrough" value for client cert.Please let me know! Thanks in advance Manuela Vorazzo\
