Documentation needs note on purpose of built-in authentication mechanism
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-4503
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4503
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 10.5.3.0, 10.5.2.0, 10.5.1.1, 10.4.2.0, 10.4.1.3,
10.3.3.0, 10.3.2.1, 10.3.1.4, 10.2.2.0, 10.2.1.6, 10.1.3.1, 10.1.2.1, 10.1.1.0,
10.0.2.1, 10.0.2.0
Reporter: Kim Haase
The Derby documentation does not make it clear that Derby's built-in
authentication mechanism is intended for development and testing use but should
not be deployed in production systems. Such systems should use LDAP or a
user-written mechanism.
This should be fixed in the trunk and in the documentation for releases 10.1
through 10.5.
The note needs to be added to one topic in the Admin Guide, two topics in the
Reference Manual (the Tuning Guide in 10.4 and earlier releases), and a varying
number of topics in the Developer's Guide, ranging from 7 in 10.1 through 10.3
to 13 in the trunk.
