REMOTE_USER setting on "local" / "remote" Location

[radim]

Hello,
We are successfuly using a great piece of code, modNTLM (sets REMOTE_USER request variable to "PRAHA\Kolek_R" for example), on our intranet server. We are implementing security on "LOCATION" container (see uncommented part of httpd.conf bellow). Everything works fine till time we tried to apply security on "remote" location. In other words security on "local" location only works fine.
So, the question is, how we have to setup apache to behave the same way in respect of "remote" locations ? The redirection to remote location we implemented through ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse directives as You can see bellow in commented section. It works well except of discovering the username of incomming user. It can be seen in access.log file too.

Note that "remote" location is placed on our application server and apache serves as its frontend.

Please help and & thanks in advance for Your time and answer,

Radim.

Hi, got a couple of questions for you..
you are using mod_NTLM, the windows version or the linux version?

I am looking to use something like this to capture NTLM usernames and use them as variables inside my php code. Implementation would be local inside one domain. My setup is an apache/php system running on a windows server.

Any help you could provide on how you are getting this mod to work would be great;-) There can be only one... and you arent it.
