Remote-User header problem #349

Description

@carlosjfcasero

I have HA running behind Traefik. In HomeAssistant, I get following logs:

homeassistant  | 2025-04-13 12:55:19.318 DEBUG (MainThread) [custom_components.auth_header] <CIMultiDictProxy('Host': 'homeassistant.tld', 'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/18.4 Safari/605.1.15', 'Content-Length': '157', 'Accept': '*/*', 'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate, br', 'Accept-Language': 'es-ES,es;q=0.9', 'Content-Type': 'text/plain;charset=UTF-8', 'Cookie': 'authelia_session=XXXXX', 'Origin': 'https://homeassistant.tld', 'Priority': 'u=3, i', 'Sec-Fetch-Dest': 'empty', 'Sec-Fetch-Mode': 'cors', 'Sec-Fetch-Site': 'same-origin', 'X-Forwarded-For': 'XXX', 'X-Forwarded-Host': 'homeassistant.tld', 'X-Forwarded-Port': '443', 'X-Forwarded-Proto': 'https', 'X-Forwarded-Server': '7653e9b683fd', 'X-Real-Ip': 'XXX')>

It complains about it's not receiving proper header. In HA configuration I have this:

username_header: Remote-User

However, in Traefik logs it seems Remote-User header is being redirected:

But HA auth header is not receiving it.
Any clue about what is happening?
