I have looked at almost every web page I can find on the subject, and have tried multiple configurations.  I have made it to the point of giving up on the extension, and just having a separate username and password.  I want all users except myself and one other to be unprivileged, which I have already setup permissions for unprivileged users to create and comment on their tickets.  I was disappointed to learn that RT does not have a self-registration page, or a bulk input for users.

Why not just create users using the bin/rt utility?

Example:
/opt/rt4/bin/rt create -t users add Name=userName EmailAddress=email at address.com Password=password
