[users@httpd] Logging an masqueraded header in Apache 2.4

[Christian Georg <ma...@christiangeorg.de>]

Hi all,


I am looking for a solution to masquerade/anonymize data I am writing to the acccess log on my proxy. For debugging purposes we need to trace data based on the x-auth header. As this header contains critical data I do not want to enable logging of the full header. Instead I am looking for a solution to only log the first X and the last y header. so instead of logging


  ycsfsfdawlkcfawncfewmlcsdfacs


I would like to see something like this

  ycsfsfd###############csdfacs

 or this.

  ycsfsfd..csdfacs

I am using apache 2.4 on centos
Any suggestion?

Thanks

Chris

setenvif or  a RewriteRule, possibly together with a RewriteCond
should be able to apply a regular expression to the value of a header
and set a new environment variable based on that.
