[users@httpd] What triggers AUTH_TYPE to show up?

[Tommy Peterson <To...@xpandcorp.com>]

If I have the following Location directive and in the headers the Auth Type shows up accordingly it says [AUTH_TYPE] => shibboleth
<Location /drupal>
  AuthType shibboleth
  ShibRequireSession On
  ShibUseHeaders On
  Require shibboleth
</Location>

What triggers the "AUTH_TYPE" header variable to show up?

I have another <Location> directive for another directory. It is locked down with the log in prompt as above and the headers show up the problem is that that AUTH_TYPE=> shibboleth doesn't show up. It is the only difference. I know it authenticated as the header also shows the attributes.

So I am confused as to why this one variable (AUTH_TYPE) isn't showing up.

And there is not "AUTH TYPE not set " in the log or anything else referencing the AUTH TYPE.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

You'll have to show the complete config, and relevant logs - both access 
and error.
