Dear mod_ssl community,

Haven't found anything in the archives, faq or the 'net in general...

I have tried to use Apache+mod_ssl with "SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth". The
feature works as advertised, as long as there are NO SPACES in the
one-line-description of the user-cert.

Is there a simple/standard way to handle user-certs which contain spaces?

Roug Soren from the Zope team seems to have had the same problem. His
solution (http://www.zope.org/Members/Roug/certificate_mapping) is to use
mod_rewrite to replace the spaces in user-names in the htpasswd file with
"0". While this solution would probably work, it somehow doesn't appeal my
sense of elegance... :)


Thans for any help...
Cheers
Roman
