.. and to explicit the question even more :Deep down in Apache's "request record" for the current request, there is a field which contains the authenticated user-id for this request, thus available to any other Apache module (not only to cgi scripts). I have a doubt that merely setting the "Apache variable" REMOTE_USER would auto-magically set this field.
That's r->user, which is presented to CGI (and things that adopt or "embrace and extend" CGI) as REMOTE_USER. Most applications (except authz modules) use REMOTE_USER, so won't need r->user. Is your application implemented a a module or modules, or is it external to the server? -- Nick Kew --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
