Are there any other changes needed? The file $RTHOME/local/plugins/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm is not part of the installation, it simply contains examples for you to paste into your $RTHOME/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm file. You can alternatively choose to put a line in your RT_SiteConfig to "include" the example file instead of just copying the lines out of it. > The wiki articles (http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ExternalAuth) are > helpful to a point, but the Post-Install section (which is apparently the > crux of the setup) is too vague for an RT newbie. I've just read it again and the instructions seem fairly clear. If you can advise what is confusing to you, perhaps we can make it better. If you are using RT 3.8.x then I recommend using this ExternalAuth 0.06_002 instead of 0.05 as it is a pre-release candidate for RT3.8 compatibility. 0.05 was written before 3.8 came out and so requires tweaking before it will work properly with 3.8 and later.
