I have now followed the instructions I have found at
http://www.nuonce.net/mod_external_lib.php but now I get this error message:

[Thu Sep 14 11:19:05 2006] [error] [client 82.118.106.158] AuthExtern pwauth
[/usr/bin/checker]: Failed (2) for user username
Can't do setuid (cannot exec sperl)

Any ideas?

Thanks
Jason
