The fakeBasisAuth can't been used with a lot of cgi-script (eg viewcvs), because using the syntax " {username} = {rights} ". The attached patch will add a config-option "FakeBasicAuth2", which is equals to "FakeBasicAuth", but using only the email-Address from the certificate.
Created attachment 12150 [details] Patch to add the FakeBasicAuth2
The "SSLUserName" directive already in HEAD should solve this problem, can you try the patch from bug 20957?
I have used the patch on 2.0.50 with "SSLUserName SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_Email", it makes the same as my patch! I will get my patch back. Can you add the patch from 20957 also to the 2.0-Branch? It is currently only in HEAD
reopening to close as dup of 20957
I'll propose the enhancement to be merged into the stable branch. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 20957 ***
