I don't want to use .htaccess and be prompting my users --but this might be my ignorance in how to make this work. When I've used this with IIS, the auth_user variable was populated with the windows username --something that isn't the case with Apache. Many other CGI variables work --and that page you sent is one I did get a chance to see before and those ones seem to work.
You do realize that the cgi.auth_user was only populated automatically (without user interaction) when using the "windows integrated security" setting. This is a MS proprietary security model officially designed to work on MS servers talking to MS clients using MS browsers. I can't help you on whether there are resources that allow this to work in non-Microsoft environments. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA "C code.
