Hello, I haven't tested it yet but I think I found the optimum solution. >From authn_dbd page [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authn_dbd.html]: "If httpd was built against APR version 1.3.0 or higher, any additional column values in the first row returned by the query statement will be stored as environment variables with names of the form AUTHENTICATE_COLUMN." So it seems I could have an "AUTHENTICATE_PATH" envvar as result of SQL query, and then I could use it in a rewrite rule... I'm wondering whether the results to SQL queries are / aren't cached, both REMOTE_USER and AUTHENTICATE_* envvars. Could somebody confirm it, please?
