Description:
------------
Since I have installed PHP-5.0.0 I do not have any answer to the command $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] ...
PHP_AUTH_USER seems to not being defined ... included in the phpinfo() ...
!?
With Apache 1.3.31, php compiled as a module.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo "USER = ".$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'];
?>


Expected result:
----------------
The auth user name ...
as explain in the PHP documentation :
 When running under Apache as module doing HTTP authentication this variable is set to the username provided by the user.

Actual result:
--------------
'PHP_AUTH_USER' not defined.

Same problem here, using Apache 1.3.31 and PHP 5.0.0 on 
Mac OS X 10.3.4.

PHP_AUTH_USER variable is blank

PHP_AUTH_PW variable works fine.

Test Script:
<?PHP

if (empty($_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_PW"]))
{
	header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\"AUTH\"");
	header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
	echo("Authorisation Required.");
	exit;
}
else
{
	echo("You entered " . $_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_USER"] . " 
for a username.<BR />");
	echo("You entered " . $_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_PW"] . " 
for a password.<BR />");
}
?>

If you set the loop test to PHP_AUTH_USER it just keeps 
asking for the username and password.

The result of the above script outputs nothing where the 
username should be, and the correct password you entered 
where the password should be.
