I do (in my C handler):
ap_table_set (r->headers_out, "Location", sec->auth_LNonDeny);
return REDIRECT;
your suggestion sounds good, off to hit my books to see how to do that -
sounds like a good solution (never done an internal redirect - I think -))

Can you set up a custom error document handler and redirect to that,
rather than using your OnDeny? Return something like 409
("Conflict"), and Apache will do an internal redirect, from which
you can get the requesting URI in the same way that you can in
other redirects.
Actually, how is the require handled? What does your auth handler
return if the user is not subscribed? Can/does your handler do an
internal redirect?

getting URL of refused page, after OnDeny
my setup: I have files in a directory, that a user can only get if subscribed. My apache is hacked with both C and mod_perl enhancements to authentication/authorization. My .htaccess looks as follows: AuthName "library services" AuthType Basic require subscribe idc OnDeny http://myserver/refusals/idc.html the problem: when a unsubscribed user tries to go to: http://myserver/protected-dir/document.pdf and gets bounced to the refusal/subscription page (idc.html) I would like to know the refused page (/protected-dir/document.pdf) so I can send them back there when they subscribe. I don't see any way to carry this infomation? Am thinking about hacking more so I can have an OnDeny line like OnDeny http://myserver/refusals/idc.html?refused=$URI but feel like I am probably missing something!
