>Environment:
SunOS axil 5.5 Generic sun4m sparc
Gcc 2.7.8
SSL + PHP3 + Frontpage
>Description:
Since I upgraded to 1.3.1 I noticed that the enviroment var HTTP_USER is not
on my CGI's env. Those CGI's are protected in access.conf and username/password
are asked to access it. With 1.2.6 all worked ok (same config).
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Some way to force HTTP_USER to be in the env, or check carefully that the CGI
(or path the CGI is in) needs auth.
