it doesn't know anything about external stores. It will break with =20
anything other than the standard bodington authenticator - well I =20
know it will break with the ldap one as it doesn't store passwords in =20=

the database as they're clear text!

I think the best thing to do is get the authenticator to override =20
where that link points to, if that's possible.
