Hi, I have a computer lab where students learn bioinformatics. The courses include a crash course on database and we want to use MySQL since it is a popular engine for bioinformatics.
No one like to remember multiple passwords and since want each student to have its own MySQL user and database I wanted to make a mapping between the database users and the posix users. Unfortunately I can't find how to do that. Let's to be a bit more explicit on what I want to do, I would like the user foo in MySQL to be authenticated though pam on the posix user foo. That way if foo changes his password with passwd, he will automatically change his MySQL password. This is what happens with Postgresql with the shell command createuser foo Is it possible to do the same with MySQL? -- Yannick Gingras -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
