<cut>
In order to prevent someone from writing a script which reveals the
password for a page that was authenticated through a traditional external
mechanism, the PHP_AUTH variables will not be set if external
authentication is enabled for that particular page. In this case, the
$REMOTE_USER variable can be used to identify the externally-authenticated
user.
