(RADIATOR) PreClientHook

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Michael -

I don't think that a PreClientHook is the right way to go about this.

If you are going to keep the number matrix in a database, it is probably 
easiest to just use two AuthBy SQL clauses - the first one to check the 
numbers and the second one to check the users.
