Gidday All, We are running AIX on an IBM HTTP server with IHS.
We are serving static HTML pages. Some of these pages are to be protected. I assume I place the restricted pages in a particular directory and then protect that directory. Once authenticated a user should be able to view protected pages without logging in again for the duration of the session. I understand that once a user is authenticated their (userId) email address will be stored in the environment variable REMOTE_USER for access by cgi-scripts. Now what I don't understand is how from a static HTML page can I check this REMOTE_USER variable automatically. Of course the first time they visit a page in the protected directory they will be prompted for their username and password, but then what? Any help appreciated. Thank You Colin
