apache basic authentication user name retrieval

Good morning.. Perhaps Good afternoon for you, folks of .au emails... I 
couldn't find in the Apache book anything about how to retrieve the name of 
a user entered when prompted by a page that is secured via the basic 
authentication scheme in Apache.. All I know is that apache somehow gets 
that user name and password and compares it to the pairs in .htpasswd and 
.htgroup files, but if I want to know who it is that just logged in, how do 
I do it?
Thak you, folks
Nour
