Hello,

please find attached the file which causes problems
regarding Apache environment variables.

Our Configuration (according to phpinfo()):
Server: Apache/1.3.0 (Unix) PHP/3.0.1                        Client: Mozilla/4.05 [en] (X11; I; SunOS 5.6 sun4u) 

Problem:
POSTing from a form: REMOTE_USER gets lost,
GETting the same: REMOTE_USER remains available.

(Change the METHOD below to see the effect.)

Please report back to "fork-info@edd.ericsson.se"

Thanks in advance.

///Stephan.

I am also unable to reproduce this bug.  Closing.  If someone can reproduce it in current versions of PHP and Apache, please resubmit.
