Hi, I'm using:
Catalyst::Runtime -- 5.80022
Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication -- 0.10016
I'm finding that C::Request->remote_user is not returning my username
when I have authenticated under apache, whereas the deprecated
C::R->user does.
Are you using SSL? Looking at the code, this can affect the environment
variables used to transmit the remote name.
All the best

The behavior is the same for both http and https requests. That is,
after a successful [AuthType Basic] authN to a non-SSL page,
C::R->remote_user returns 'undef' while C::R->user returns 'tleffler'.
Thanks for the response though, I hadn't checked for that variable.
It's a good point about how env vars are accessed... Is Catalyst using
(in my case, via mod_perl2) Apache2::RequestRec->user to get the
logged-in username?
