I'm using the following settings

// Authenication
$mcFileManagerConfig['authenticator'] = "ExternalAuthenticator";

// ExternalAuthenticator config
$mcFileManagerConfig['ExternalAuthenticator.external_auth_url'] = "http://www.website.com/auth_drupal.php";
$mcFileManagerConfig['ExternalAuthenticator.secret_key'] = "XXXXXX";

There are no specific roles to be set for plugins for TinyMCE, just a general permission to allow them to use TinyMCE.

It's strange that it works for admin user but not any others?

Solved.

The auth_drupal.php file shipped with the filemanager does not work out of the box as it was for the old and depreciated module TinyMCE WYSIWYG.  Drupal now uses WYSIWYG API to get text editors working.

If anyone else comes across this.  My install is as follows.

On Drupal:

WYSIWYG API with TinyMCE installed, Filemanager installed and registered with it, in the new WYSIWYG API module you need to allow Filemanager by adding the following likes to sites/all/modules/wysiwyg/editors/tinymce.inc

'filemanager' => array(
      'path' => $editor['library path'] .'/plugins/filemanager',
      'buttons' => array('media' => t('File Manager')),
      'url' => 'http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:Plugins/filemanager',
      'internal' => TRUE,
      'load' => TRUE,
    ),



This will allow the admin user only to use the FileManager plugin.  To allow all users with the TinyMCE permission assigned to their role you need to edit this part of auth_drupal.php file also.

// Check if user is valid or not
if (!user_access('access tinymce imagemanager') && !user_access('access tinymce filemanager'))
die("Sorry, you don't have access to the imagemanager/filemanager.");


the reason this will not work is that no permission called Access TinyMCE Filemanager exists with the new WYSIWYG API, to get it to work comment out the block of code:

// Check if user is valid or not
    //if (!user_access('access tinymce imagemanager') && !user_access('access tinymce filemanager'))
    //die("Sorry, you don't have access to the imagemanager/filemanager.");
