[rt-users] Apache authentication, then RT authentication?

The missing "logout" is, I believe normal, as authentication
is now not RT's responsibility.

As for "not an authorized user", my reading of the code suggests
that this means it couldn't find the user in the RT database.

You'll still need to create your users as per usual; WebExternalAuth
only provides authentication, not authorisation.

(Disclaimer: I don't use WebExternalAuth. I could be speaking crap.)
