I'm trying to run a perl cgi script in a standalone tomcat container

It is usually a good idea to mention your Tomcat version although in
this case it doesn't change the answer.
With the script running under apache, an environment variable
(SSL_CLIENT_S_DN) is set with the DN from the connecting client's
certificate.
Is is possible to pick up a similar environment variable with the cgi
script running under tomcat? I've looked at the list of cgi variables
that are set and it isn't amongst them.
The best you are going to get is REMOTE_USER and how that is populated
under SSL depends on how your realm is configured.
I've looked around for a way to do this but can't seem to find anything.
Any help would be appreciated.
If you need this, patching the CGIServlet should be easy. If you get a
patch that works, I would be happy to review it for inclusion in the
standard Tomcat CGI Servlet.
