Apache with mod-auth-kerb

RT Developers
1

I am new to RT and have set up a working system on fedora 6 with
population of the database from LDAP when email is received. I now want
to move to web authentication. Have apache working with kerberos but
when I turn on WebExternalAuth, RT comes up with a mainly blank screen.
After reveiwing some logs I believe that REMOTE_USER is returning with
username@domain.name and RT needs only username. After some poking
around found that this is handled in RT/Interface/Web.pm

Has anyone come accross this and have a fix or can point me in the right
direction? I have very little perl (read almost none) experience.

Thanks,

David.
