How to get REMOTE_USER variable in PHP while using ubuntu and apache for SSO in Joomla
<p>I'm new to php and Apache.<br>
I'm currently making intrantet for the hospital and I would really love to get SSO working.<br>
I'm using Bitnami Joomla Stack VM which runs on 64-bit Ubuntu 14.04. I've followed Tim Plummer guide how to get SSO working with shmanic.com tools.<br>
I've got this far that I can log into intranet with AD username and password but in order to get SSO working I need REMOTE_USER variable from php.  </p>

<p>I looked for REMOTE_USER variable in Ubuntu terminal by using command <em>php info.php</em> where I had written in .php file <em>phpinfo();</em><br>
I also found that there's MIT Kerberos, WinBind and NTLM but I'm not sure if those are what I need.</p>

<p>How do I get this variable and am I looking at the right place for the REMOTE_USER or it must be displayed somewhere else? </p>
