ERROR: No authenticate method (Auth-Type) found for the request: Rejecting the user

[Jim Whitescarver]

Thank's Alan, it works!

We had the same issue with python auths being serialized that we had
with pam, but running out of debug mode fixed the issue. Pam probably
would have worked if we tried that, but it was a pam_python module
anyway so it is better going directly to python.

Thanks again,

Jim
