adding in to the horde website root's .htaccess the following line
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
This patch is in line with the document at
http://wiki.horde.org/HTTPAuthHowTo which states this will permit a
CGI-BIN'd instance of PHP to convert the basic authentication to a
variable it can use.
Alternatively, it may be worth updating the wiki to show a better
line, if (for example) the existing code I've patched is already using
a line like:
RewriteRule .* - [E=Authorizaton:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
Either way, this should probably be documented somewhere in the docs
to show this could be useful.
