Re: modifying header in request

Thanks for the advice Eric!

I looked it up and found information and examples like the one below. However the X_REMOTE_USER header always comes out empty, I can not figure out why. I can see that REMOTE_USER indeed contains an authentic username. According to mod_rewrite documentation the below directives should work out. Think I have seen other examples where it does not work either.

Is the code looking right? Is there a reason it should not work out on Apache httpd 2.0 on the win32 platform?

RewriteCond %{LA-U:REMOTE_USER} (.+)
RewriteRule ^(.*) - [L,P,E=RU:%1]
RequestHeader add X_REMOTE_USER %{RU}e 

/Cenk
