We consider the problem of finding on a given bounded and smooth
Euclidean domain \Omega of dimension n ≥ 3 a complete conformally flat metric whose Schouten
curvature A satisfies some equation of the form  f(\lambda(-A)) =1. This generalizes a problem
considered by Loewner and Nirenberg for the scalar curvature. We prove the existence and uniqueness of
locally Lipschitz solutions. We also show that the Lipschitz regularity is in general optimal.
