Very Computer

my only problem is to get the user id from the
environment and use it in the mapping. I had many trial
as to using %{REMOTE_USER} , but always return "" noting,
I use %{HTTP_HOST}, and I get the host.

I made an .htaccsee/.htpasswd on top of the requested
file, but I still get "". I went to the configuration,
and looked at it, it's OK.

My final analagy is as follow:

Client ------(Request)--------> SERVER (client wants file x under
Directory A => /A/x.)
                                  |
                                  |  (Still No UserId spasefied
%{REMOTE_USER} == "")
                                  |  (server attempt to redirect reqiest
at this point to /B/clientID/x.  httpd.conf RewitrRule)
                           -------O-------
                           |             |
                           |             |
                      (Directory A)   (Directory B) (client ends up
going to PATH="/B//" same as B, NO ClientId!!)
              (Clint LogOn popup window)    |
                                            ---------
                                                    |
                                                    |
                                        (client UserID Directory) <=
(****clint should end here****)

I don't know what to do to get the %{REMOTE_USER}. I'm in deep need of a
solution if any.
I tryed every thing I can comup with, still no UserID.

Can sombody till me how can I get the %{REMOTE_USER} at the execution of
the
httpd.conf RewriteRules.

Thank you all for your help, and time.  I truly appreciate it.

Thank You.

yours;

Dia Awad.

According to the docs, you need to use
%{LA-U:REMOTE_USER} in order to get the value through a subrequest.
