Ok, here's something I don't understand. I've connected my apache and tomcat using mod_jk
in my httpd.conf I wrote
SetEnv REMOTE_USER xxx
PassEnv REMOTE_USER
and then in tomcat I just wrote a file
<% out.print (request.getAttribute("REMOTE_USER")); %> and well enough, I got xxx printed on the page
now, I installed a module for authentication in apache, wrote a small php file that prints out all the headers and I got a big list among which REMOTE_USER had the value equal to the username. But now, in tomcat, the same small file doesn't return anything even though REMOTE_USER has a value and in httpd.conf I left the PassEnv REMOTE_USER line.
So where's the catch? If I set the environment and pass it, tomcat sees it, if it's set by the authentication module and I just pass it, tomcat doesn't see it. anybody knows why?
