Apache 2.4 web server - string manipulation

Hi,

I have configured an Apache 2.4 web server for Kerberos authentication. I need to pass the user in an HTTP header to the back-end server. This can be achieved by:-
Code:
# Set header to blank
RequestHeader set KERBEROS_USER ""
# Set header
RequestHeader set KERBEROS_USER "%{REMOTE_USER}s"

However the user is passed in the format:-
"userA@domain.com"

I would like to pass just "userA".

Please can anyone advise if this is possible and if so how?

Many thanks
Simon

Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		       Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic(3pm)

NAME
Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic - Simple basic authentication middleware SYNOPSIS
use Plack::Builder; my $app = sub { ... }; builder { enable "Auth::Basic", authenticator => &authen_cb; $app; }; sub authen_cb { my($username, $password) = @_; return $username eq 'admin' && $password eq 's3cr3t'; } DESCRIPTION
Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic is a basic authentication handler for Plack. CONFIGURATION
authenticator A callback function that takes username and password supplied and returns whether the authentication succeeds. Required. Authenticator can also be an object that responds to "authenticate" method that takes username and password and returns boolean, so backends for Authen::Simple is perfect to use: use Authen::Simple::LDAP; enable "Auth::Basic", authenticator => Authen::Simple::LDAP->new(...); realm Realm name to display in the basic authentication dialog. Defaults to restricted area. LIMITATIONS
This middleware expects that the application has a full access to the headers sent by clients in PSGI environment. That is normally the case with standalone Perl PSGI web servers such as Starman or HTTP::Server::Simple::PSGI. However, in a web server configuration where you can't achieve this (i.e. using your application via Apache's mod_cgi), this middleware does not work since your application can't know the value of "Authorization:" header. If you use Apache as a web server and CGI to run your PSGI application, you can either a) compile Apache with "-DSECURITY_HOLE_PASS_AUTHORIZATION" option, or b) use mod_rewrite to pass the Authorization header to the application with the rewrite rule like following. RewriteEngine on RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L] AUTHOR
