+=== Using CA SiteMinder Authentication
+Setup CA SiteMinder to protect your Trac login URL (e.g. /trac/login).  Then modify the trac.wsgi script generated using `trac-admin <env> deploy <dir>` to add the following lines, which extract the HTTP_SM_USER variable and set it to REMOTE_USER:
+
+{{{#!python
+def application(environ, start_request): 
+    # Set authenticated username on CA SiteMinder to REMOTE_USER variable 
+    # strip() is used to remove any spaces on the end of the string
+    if 'HTTP_SM_USER' in environ: 
+        environ['REMOTE_USER'] = environ['HTTP_SM_USER'].strip()
+    ...
+}}}
+
+Note:  you do not need any Apache "Location" directives.
