minor clarification, but it is important to note that you cannot get the actual password from reading $ENV{REMOTE_USER}, or any other environment variable for that matter. $ENV{REMOTE_USER} will give you the username under which the user has authenticated, but not the password. That said, George Sherston is correct in that you can assume that if he got far enough to populate the REMOTE_USER variable that he is properly logged in.
