I'll be doing AD auth once I can get RT to work as a whole packaged. One step at
a time, anyway am glad to hear another report that it works.

Hm, that might help some. I'll check into that a bit further. I don't have that
file in that location.

That's a good idea. I'll do that. I hadn't gotten far enough to think about that
yet. You've helped me confirm some of my settings and given me a few directions
to look. While playing the the main.cf I'm also noticing some stuff about
relaying that might help also.

Thanks,
