I'd expect $r->user to be set, not $r->prev->user nor $r->main->user. But I'd expect $r->prev to be set because $r is the result of an internal redirect. But I am not sure what exactly ap_internal_fast_redirect does. Oh my, I found it. ap_internal_fast_redirect isn't exactly an internal redirect. Instead it overrides the current request with a subreq. Look at modules/http/http_request.c. There is a comment that says something about that function: /* XXX: Is this function is so bogus and fragile that we deep-6 it? */ AP_DECLARE(void) ap_internal_fast_redirect(request_rec *rr, request_rec *r) And yes, it forgets about $r->user at least in apache 2.2.6. Maybe you file a bug for apache? You can check in the AuthenHandler for $r->main. If it is true you can set $r->user as well as $r->main->user. Torsten -- Need professional mod_perl support?
