Difference between AUTH_USER and REMOTE_USER cgi variables
问题 The docs aren't entirely clear on this - is there a difference between these variables? On IIS at least they appear to be identical, but I don't want to rely on that if it might be different under other servers. 回答1: According to the Adobe ColdFusion documentation they are the same. http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=Expressions_8.html Looking at the openbd source code, the remote_user and the auth_user are mapped to the same key, so it returns the same value.
