Hi there,
we are running an application server behind squid (zope/plone).
Squid calls an url_rewrite_program written in python to call that server.
I would like to send the name of the authenticated user to the
application server.
Now my question: How can I do that?
For me the best thing would be to be able to add it to the http headers,
so that the server down the chain can read it.
how could I do that?
Is ther a sample somewher?
Sounds like you are another site running a 2.5 configuration.
You will need Squid 2.6, setup with a cache_peer and ACL routing instead
of url_rewriter.
The cache_peer take option login=PASS to trust the source peer with
credentials.
