Is it possible to get the authentication details and pass them to the scripts so they can be passed to postgres so PG can then authenticate without further user input (pg is using md5 auth)
$ENV{REMOTE_USER} has the username.
The password is a bit trickier since its not usually automatically sent to the environment for security reasons. You will ikely need to modify apache to set $ENV{REMOTE_PASSWORD} perhaps...
thanks fo any tips
