Have a look at section 6.22 in the Radiator 2.14.1 reference manual:
6.22 <AuthBy EXTERNAL>
AuthBy EXTERNAL passes all requests to an eternal program,
which is responsible for determining how to handle the request. It is
implemented in AuthEXTERNAL.pm . When the external command is run, all the
attributes in the request will be formatted and passed to its standard input
(stdin), one per line, in the format:
<tab> Attribute-Name = attribute_value
Each line output by the command on stdout is interpreted as a list of
comma separated attribute-value pairs in the format:
Attribute-Name = attribute_value
