[rt-users] Installing and Using ExternalAuth

[Eric Chatham]

Hello All,

I am trying to install the current PM for RT::Authen::ExternalAuth PM from CPAN.  I am using the wiki.bestpractical guide for the installation.

http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ExternalAuth

I am stuck at the point where it is asking me to enter the path to the RT PM.  I tried looking up RT.pm in the system and using the path to it in the Makefile.PL portion, but it is not taking.  I also tried copying the RT.pm to one of the selections in the Makefile.PL answer prompt to no avail.  Please assist in any way possible.  I tried both the cpan install and manual installation.  I am stuck at both places with the Makefile.PL script.  Thank you greatly. :)
