Thanks for the reply Jacob, this did work however when it authorizes you it just renders a blank page and does not hand off control to Radiant.
Since I was in a pinch I did some hacking and got it to work, but if anyone finds a clean way to require authorization for a collection of pages and still use Radiant please post it to the list, I think that would be helpful.
