Which authentication module are you trying to use???? there are several if
you don't tell me which one for me it's impossible to track it down.

Flaming and yelling in opening a bug isn't either.

While flaming us opening the bug helps?? You are DD as we are. You know
what needs to be in a bug report. If you do not know how to report against
a specific package it does not cost you anything to ask. You are perfectly
aware that we are not MIA and that we are highly available to everyone.
