Sure, if httpd isn't doing auth it will not care about REMOTE_USER nor parse the Authorization header. > > If user names do not have ":", I can get the username. User names never have ':', per https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2617#section-3.2.2 : user-pass = userid ":" password userid = *<TEXT excluding ":"> password = *TEXT Nothing special in httpd when it does auth, REMOTE_USER is extracted from the Authorization header (HTTP_AUTHORIZATION) as "everything before the first ':'". Your CGI has to do the same thing if it's responsible for the auth.
