No "Remote-User" in HTTP header when HTTP request gets to WLS

Question

Hello Exprers,
I have a customer, using 10.3.3 on Linux machine. Web server as Apache.
He wants Remote-User in HTTP header, he used to get it when he used Tomcat. But when he transffered to Apache and 10.3.3, he is not getting the Remote-User in header, instead he is getting proxy-remote-user.
He wants the Remote-user in HTTP header.
Any clue, on why he is not getting it.

Hi,
We are facing error while doing openConnection
When I tried with simple java file it worked as shown below
import java.io.*;
import javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection;
public class test
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
String httpsURL = "https://rcfe.aspac.citicorp.com:40054/servlet/Verify";
URL myurl = new URL(httpsURL);
HttpsURLConnection con = (HttpsURLConnection)myurl.openConnection();
InputStream ins = con.getInputStream();
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(ins);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(isr);
if (con!=null)
System.out.println("con="+con);
System.out.println(ins);
Output*
[rcrrgbg2@kauh0079:/rcrmap2/weblogic/bea/ORA_PFRD/forms/j2ee] java test
con=com.ibm.net.ssl.www2.protocol.https.e:https://rcfe.aspac.citicorp.com:40054/servlet/Verify
sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection$HttpInputStream@5f6c5f6c
However when I tried with below program I am able to write upto Web CL URL but after that no log is written when it tries to do openConnection() for this line csConn=(HttpsURLConnection)new URL(webclURL).openConnection(); in the below code
