rlm_perl not working as expected on 2.0.5

Greetings, I'm busy trying out Freeradius 2.0.5 before upgrading from 1.1.0, and so far everything looks good. I would like to try out rlm_perl since it presents some interesting possibilities, but am having a spot of bother. I followed the howto here: http://wiki.freeradius.org/Rlm_perl rlm_perl isn't event loaded/instantiated unless I add 'perl' to the instantiate section of radiusd.conf. Even if I do, however, I keep getting this error: "Parse error (check) for entry DEFAULT: Unknown value Perl for attribute Auth-Type" Any pointers on what I'm missing/doing wrong would be appreciated. Thanks Henry Here's the debug: Mon Aug 11 15:58:53 2008 : Info: FreeRADIUS Version 2.0.5, for host i686-pc-linux-gnu, built on Aug 8 2008 at 18:56:21 Mon Aug 11 15:58:53 2008 : Info: Copyright (C) 1999-2008 The FreeRADIUS server project and contributors.
