[rt-users] [Solved] ExternalAuth User creation in RT

[Keith A McDermott]

I found that the issue was in the order I did this in.  I dropped the 
database and re-initialized it with the parameters set and now it's all 
working great as far as permissions.  New users are showing up properly 
under "Users" in RT.

Now to get the mail working...
