[web2py] help with getting user information from web2py when sign in with janrain

[Resa Bee]

i am using janrain which basically allows third party authentication
in web2py and i have a problem with gettin  the user information when
soemone signs in... first of all i have noticed that in windows
janrain is not that effective as u have to manipulate a token but in
linux it works fine without setting up a token (depending on your
proxy settings).. right now mine is a bit messed up as i have changed
it quiet frequently and1) i would like to know also how to get linux
back into its default settings 2) i would like to know how to grab teh
user information from web2py when a user signs in with janrain.
