70 C<REMOTE_USER> will be set to C<< $c->user->obj->$username_field >> if

78 or regular expressions to pass through to your CGIs. Entries surrounded by C</>
79 characters are considered regular expressions.

84 variables or regular expressions to remove from the environment before passing
85 it to your CGIs. Entries surrounded by C</> characters are considered regular
88 Default is to pass the whole of C<%ENV>, except for entries listed in
89 L</FILTERED ENVIRONMENT> below.
93 C<< $your_controller->{CGI}{username_field} >> should be the field for your
94 user's name, which will be read from C<< $c->user->obj >>. Defaults to
