Using External Security Provider with Subversion 1.3.1+Apache

Hi,

I have set Subversion with Apache integration and have it working both with
and without basic authentication via AuthType basic. Now, I want to wrap the
whole thing up so that it is protected by Siteminder. So I have configured
Siteminder, let it know what all the WebDAV verbs are, and set up the
policies. From a security point of view, everything is working. My question
is: now that an external provider is handling security, how do I pass the
author's username to Subversion to make sure the history is updated
correctly? Currently, it looks like everything is done by Anonymous. Is
there an HTTP header I can set, or a variable I can append to the URL?

Thanks,
Keith
