would probably be very dependent on the data within the database. if it's
a lot of text data, then very compressable, as text typically compresses
nicely. if you store a bunch of binary data (images or something), then
probably not as much...
tar your mysql dir and gzip it, or gzip -9 or bzip2
you can use the password() mysql function to crypt it.
you cannot retrieve the encrypted password -- only compare input
(password() the input) against the saved encrypted password. if the
resulting text matches, the password is good. if not, the authentication
in your application should fail.
it's not all that dangerous. it just means that you can read your users'
passwords. anyone who can read that db table can become any of your
users. password fields are just another safeguard against a "just in case
someone gets read access to this" scenario. they also serve to provide
more pr
they're both behaving similarly, it's just that linux's implementation and
display of threads is different than solaris'. the same correlation of
threads for connections is there on solaris, you just won't see it on a
"ps" command's output.
