Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
In our environment we use a coustom environment variable to store the authenticated username. For example HTTP_LOGIN.
To be able to read this option I added a new configuration option with this patch called "webserver_auth_user_env_var". When this option is set the given $_SERVER var gets read and used as username. When none is set the default way (Trying REDIRECT_REMOTE_USER and REMOTE_USER) is being used.
