Hi Anshu, Thanks for your interest in the dynamic plugins project/idea. I think making auth_file dynamic is a good place to start because it's a pretty simple plugin with clear testing. You can look at query_log to see how it handles when a string variable (its log file) is changed; the same will happen for auth_file: the user will change the users file, so the plugin will need to close the current file, open the new file, parse it, etc.
