Hi,

I tried to update the restful\_authentication plugin by doing this.

> ruby script/plugin update restful\_authentication

But it didn’t do anything.

I know though I don’t have the latest version because in another  
project I pulled down the latest restful\_authentication code and it  
was different.

Is this an issue w/ restful\_authentication or a bug w/ ruby  
script/plugin?

Thanks,  
Frank

Just looking at the code for script/plugin it looks like i would only  
work if you had it in svn:externals. If I were you I’d just remove the  
plugin and install it again.
