require group other


Hi there - I think ive figured out the grouping problem - Is the above lines ok - in my htaccess file to only accept the 'other' group ?


Ive tried before - on admin, & it worked - Changed to'other' & now my admin/root user cant get in, But my 'other' username can get in..

Ok - So i think its sorted :-

Next question :-

In my perl script, ive just listed all my %ENV variables

RCEUSERNAME anonymous
REMOTE_USER anonymous

The above two lines are interesting to me (what i want - The user-name they entered in the htaccess password screen. ) (ps I think anonymous is spelt wrong, but anyways, thats what ive put ;) )

Ok - ive seen "REMOTE_USER" on other sites as a variable thats loaded in or something.

is RCEUSERNAME specific to Sambar ? or to all websites ? will that ALWAYS be the user-name they entered (& passed) with - when entering that directory ?

What about REMOTE_USER ? - same thing - will that always be the username they used ?

PS - The cgi script im designing will eventually go on a unix server.


ok - I dont see any variable names for the 'group' the user belongs to yet - is that possible ?
