Apache: Can I filter the user's login name?


Where I work, the IT people have the systems setup (wrongly in my opinion) to require not just the user's username but to have the username pre-pended with regional info. Like this:

Username: RegionName//UserName
Password: ********

The server I maintain doesn't require this (even though I have it authenticate through the same services as the rest of IT (active directory via ldap))

The problem is I see lots of authentication errors in my apache error_log file because people are using the RegionName//UserName login.

Is there anyway I can filter out the RegionName// on the username field in Apache during authentication??
