That's what I was thinking as well, though I don't get logged out, but I
can't see my users profile.  I removed the config line and logged in as the
administrator with the default login.  The user I created seemed to have the
correct permissions.  Also when not using my custom authenticator, I was able
to login as this new user and everything was fine.  But the minute I change
the config back to my authenticator I get the "Error  You are not allowed to
view..." error.

It does sound like a permissions thing, but I virtually have a fresh install
of XWiki, so I haven't changed any of the permissions or groups or anything.
So I would have thought the XWiki.createEmptyUser method would set my user up
as it needed to be.  Or I would have expected something in the documentation
to tell me to do something myself.

Any other ideas after knowing the above?

If you can log in with this user, and you can click on your profile name
displayed in the top-right menu, and you're not logged out immediately after
that, then it's not a user authentication problem, but a rights issue. Make
sure the user is in the requested groups, and he does have the rights to
view/edit documents.
