Question:
I upgraded my version of PHP from 4.4.0 mod_php (scripts run as nobody) to 4.4.0 (run as my username), per the PHP version configuration panel. Now I am getting some authentication problems:
Since the upgrade I am finding that $_SERVER[‘PHP_AUTH_USER’] is now null, whereas before it was populated.
Answer :
Hi,
Try and use :
$_SERVER[‘REMOTE_USER’]
That should work. The cgi versions of php don’t have access to the HTTP vars. Check :

for more on this.
