I am having trouble with mod_setenvif removing entries from my access logs, where remote_user is has an hyphen '-'.

The idea is to filter out any requests that has '-' where remote_user is stored.


Not working:
SetEnvIf Remote_User "-" dontlog

example of log entry:
192.168.15.101 - - [02/Jul/2008:10:28:26 -0500] "GET

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Did you add the dontlog check to the log file entry?
like:

CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined env=!dontlog

Yes. In fact place these variable before the log file entry and did a graceful restart on the server.

Entries:
SetEnvIf Remote_User "-" dontlog
SetEnvIf Remote_User "^-" dontlog
SetEnvIf Remote_User "^-.*$" dontlog
CustomLog "|/usr/sbin/cronolog /var/log/httpd/access-log.%Y.%m.%d.log" combined env=!dontlog
