Hi Patrick,
In the first case, the config says hat an external script is supposed to
computed the checksum. If the external script produces an incorrect
response, the client will get it and complain. The second case says that
the checksum is to be computed using the internal native mechanism. In
this case, a corect response will always be sent. Hence, it will work. We
reccomend that the internal mechanism be used when it is possible to do
so. That said, ot would be interestin to know what the hiccup is in the
external script.
