Module mod_log_config and custom Auth

[Martin Moss <ma...@btopenworld.com>]

All,

I'm looking to ensure that an Authenticated user's
username is logged in our logfiles, along with a
cookie string..  I've had a quick look through google
and I'm currently finding that I should use %u for
username, but this is appearing blank... What do I
need to set in my Custome Authentication Handler to
ensure the username gets recorded...

Embperl does not anything with your user setting

this doesnt seem to work. Here's the code

print STDERR "Username given = ". $investor3->name .
"\n";

$r->connection->user($investor3->name);
$r->user($investor3->name);

I'm definitely seeing correct username's in the
logs...  

We have EmbPerl installed... Can this have anything to
do with it?

well, if you're using a custom authentication handler then you need to 
set $r->user to whatever username you authenticated.  there are other 
things you need to do as well, but that should solve your immeditate 
problem.
