First of all, you need to set register_globals to OFF. Having it on is
a potential security threat, which is why it now defaults to off.
Are you trying this from a protected directory? What happens if you put
a file containing
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
(only) in a protected directory? Do you see the authorized user there?
Also, what web server are you using?
It should show up in both $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] (the best to use)
and $_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'] (which may or may not be authorized).
