[rt-users] RT with pubcookie/External Auth

[Jasen M. Lentz]

Alan..

I did modify the variables.  I'm wondering if I messed something up in the
ssl.conf or httpd.conf...

It is SSL based as well.  As I stated, I may have messed a config up.  I had
to put it in both the httpd.conf and ssl.conf.  If I use pubcooklie in the
SSL file, it causes an eternal loop.  Would you like for me to send you a
copy of my configs?  Maybe I'm missing something...

Thanks!
JML

Works for me, at least for RT 3.6.1, Apache 2.0, CentOS 3, and Pubcookie
3.3.1.  Couple of things to consider...
* You've modified the site config variables WebExternalAuth,
WebFallbackToInternalAuth, and maybe WebExternalGecos and WebExternalAuto?
* Your RT instance is set up as SSL-based (https) and WebBaseURL and WebPort
are appropriate?  Pubcookie by design (except if you compile it explicitly
to do so) only works with SSL-based URLs.
