Are you saying you don't have REMOTE_ADDR? That would be very strange. I've never seen that before, so if that is true, you should probably take this up on a Redhat forum to see if it is something they did. Otherwise, the most likely explanation is that the CGI is not actually protected by http authentication. Try accessing the CGI script directly (not through an html page) from a freshly-launched browser and make sure you get the auth prompt. > > I have checked and the Apache config files seem > correct and set up.
