Thanks for your input.
For my part i solved my problem, as you usually do asking various folk and
trying this and that.
In short the documentation:
http://dev.e-taxonomy.eu/trac/wiki/ApacheMySQLAuthentication
is incorrect re pam-mysql, as it transpires, among other things. I have
contacted the author, to little avail.
Half way down where it says:
auth sufficient pam_mysql.so verbose=1 user=webuser passwd= host=160.45.63.30
db=drupal5 table=drupal5._shared_users usercolumn=drupal5._shared_users.name
passwdcolumn=drupal5._shared_users.pass crypt=3
you need to also put:
account sufficient pam_mysql.so verbose=1 user=webuser passwd=
host=160.45.63.30 db=drupal5 table=drupal5._shared_users
usercolumn=drupal5._shared_users.name passwdcolumn=drupal5._shared_users.pass
crypt=3
Thats it, and it'll keep me happy, and by extention others I guess if it were
better documented, until
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=405773 is resolved. How long
before mod_authn_dbd does mysql ?

Can somebody please, please tell me HOW YOU DO auth with etch apache 2.2 mysql?
Hi Peter,
there was libapache2-mod-auth-mysql in sid which you can rebuild on etch.
Since it has been removed from unstable you'll have to fetch the source
code from <http://snapshot.debian.net/libapache-mod-auth-mysql>.
I've just seen that you've tried mod-auth-mysql 3.0. Beware, that's
a totally different approach. The one mentioned above has been included
in Debian once and works on Debian. I use it on etch.
Regards,
Joey
