Hi,
Yes I set the rule to be always true so that I could see what the remote user
was set to in this line:
rewriteRule ^index.php.*
/research/conduct/signedin.php\?user\=%{REMOTE_USER}
The goal here is to redirect if a user is logged in. If there is a better way
in a .htaccess file that would be great. I just figured that checking the
remote user would be the easiest method.
I'm trying to stay away from PHP on this one. The simplest method seems to be
the .htaccess method (if it was working).
Thanks for the help

Hi,
can you check with a simple server side include shtml file that the
remote user is properly set:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<p>Hi, I'm protected by CAS.</p>
<p>REMOTE_USER =
<!--#echo var="REMOTE_USER"-->
</p>
</body>
</html>
I'm not very familiar with the rewrite stuff but you regex seems wrong.
The condition should be .+ or maybe even ^.+$ . Your regexp will match
an empty remote user. Your groupings are unecessary since you dont use them.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_USER} ^.+$
rewriteRule ^index.php.*
/research/conduct/signedin.php\?user\=%{REMOTE_USER}
Since you are trying to get the remote user to an php application i
would suggest you give phpCAS https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASC/phpCAS
a try.
Cheers,
Joachim
