If you're reverse proxying from httpd to nginx, then no, you won't get 
REMOTE_USER set.  You'd need to use headers instead of environment 
variables (not the default) and pull the particular value you want.

It might be possible to have nginx map an incoming header value to 
REMOTE_USER, but I don't know much on the nginx side.
