See previous answer :P A php or perl frontend to pull JUST that users record. Have them authenticate FIRST via the current password, then update the record that contains that username. Make sense? I don't see a need for them to view the whole table if you use a method such as this.

sorry I'm not being clear here. When I meant was, if all users are contained in the same table, how can I allow a user to change just the row which corresponds to their username without revealing the rest of the table?

I don't know your specifics BUT, it sounds to me like a job for a php
front end of some sort. That would certainly make that a moot point.

Thanks, I'm just thinking that mysql is a big and complex program which
offers a lot of features. Our requirements are quite specific. I'mnot
saying I'm ruling out using mysql, just would like to hear whetherthere
are any alternatives. Also, I notice that the mysql schema has a a users table. Isn't it going to be difficult to give a single user access to change their password while hiding other users passwords?for

How many users are we talking about here? Sounds like a decent task
MySQL to me :) If you are worried about database size etc. I'd do a shell script or something to throw in X number of dummy users and see what you end up with.

Hi there,
After some trouble I have managed to get freeradius to compile on openbsd! Now I have a question about the backend database to use with
http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.htmlfreeradius. Requirements:
1) Users can access the database and change their own password.
2) Users cannot see or change any other users passwords.
3) The database we use is as small and cut down as possible while including the above two features.
I have thought about using MYSQL and table priveleges to acheive this.
However my concern is that MYSQL is a little bloated and would prefer
to
acheive the above using the most cut down db I can. By the way this configuration has only one realm.
Thanks in advance.
