(RADIATOR) AuthBy EXTERNAL not working ?

[Hugh Irvine]

Adrian -

Could you please tell me what version of Radiator you are running, and 
what version of Perl and what hardware/software platform? It would also 
be useful to see the complete configuration file (no secrets) together 
with a trace 4 debug from Radiator showing what is happening. Could you 
also run your external program by hand so I can see how it behaves.

regards

Hugh
