How to check username logged in?

Checking user logged in via .htaccess

[kidd]

Hello...

My site is protected via .htacces and .htpasswd

Im creating a script that makes a log of certain actions the users do while navigating in the protected directories.

The problem is, that for me to be able to do this I need to know by what username the user accesed the protected directories...

I hope Im making myself clear...I read somewhere that I could know this by seeing the $ENV{'REMOTE_USER'} variable, but its not working...

Could someone help me out...

Thanks

Kidd,

You need to make sure the script you are using to capture REMOTE_USER is protected under the same realm as the directory. Make some tests by just saying in your script

print "Hello", $ENV{REMOTE_USER};
