Hi Diva

  Interessting new settings which i could use....

  I see in the GridCommon.ini that you added AuthorizationServices = 
"LocalAuthorizationServicesConnector". I am already using the 
"RemoteAuthorizationServicesConnector" in a few other projects. Taking a 
glance at the code both will not work together, right?
