Re: [PacketFence-users] Urgent Response

In the local.pm file (conf/authentication), there is a sub called : isAllowedToSponsorGuests 

Do you have any errors in the log files?
Using local authentication when doing sponsor is a bit hackish, the domain part of the email address is stripped before validation, but the email is sent to the email you put in the form :S I would suggest you use LDAP instead, that would be much less hackish :)

Hi Francois,

Thanks for your response.
In the admin guide, sponsor_authentication is set to local which in my case its the same too. The local users are found in user.conf file. In fact in the admin guide under Flat File, there is written that local users need to have a password set with htpasswd (for user.conf file) and that's exactly what I have done.
Unfortunately, when I try to register via a sponsor, the same error is coming up all the time and don't know what I am doing wrong. If the sponsor email address is located in user.conf, why does the system not allowing such user to be a sponsor? 

Regards,
Matthew

guests_managers.conf have nothing to do with sponsor... read the admin guide again. 

Look at page 54, there is an example config.
