table does not exist error

wdennen,

Yes, the module does fail on installing. I have corrected the issue and committed a change to the development version. Drupal will repackage the update by tomorrow. In the mean time, if you just replace your ipauth.install file with the code below, you should be set to go once you make certain that the module is uninstalled. To make sure that a module is not installed, just make sure that the module isn't checked, and then goto the uninstall tab and follow the directions.
