Looks like you missed Net::Ldap module.

Thanks Mike,

I did follow as per instructions with 'perl Makefile.PL', 'make', and
'make install'. I just reported here up until my first error as I
assumed the next error was related to the first reported.  Anyway, I
continued on to edit the /opt/rt3/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm by adding 'Set(
@Plugins, qw(RT::Authen::ExternalAuth) );' as per the readme file.
After that, if I attempt to restart Apache, the server fails and the
error logs report the following:
Can't locate Net/LDAP.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
/opt/rt3/bin/../local/lib
/opt/rt3/local/plugins/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth/lib /opt/rt3/bin/../lib

Thanks again

I don't know why this would be. But manual installation is just as good 
so it doesn't matter much.

I don't know what's causing the "cannot determine" warnings, I guess I 
just haven't yet accounted for a newer version.

Nothing, you just stopped too early. Once you've done `perl Makefile.PL`

you need to do `make` and `make install`.
