Right. That's the idea. People don't change their authentication mechanism daily, weekly, or even yearly. They generally pick one and stick with it unless a larger change happens, like scaling up to a clustered environment which generally requires a networked database. Besides, even if people did change their backend database on a more frequent basis, it takes around 5 seconds to recompile vpopmail. About the same time it would take to edit a configuration file to make it load a different authentication module. > with loadable module support only some parts of the code will be > linked with mysql, pgsql, oracle etc.. Please explain why you would need different parts of vpopmail talking to different databases. - -- /* Matt Brookings <m...@inter7.com> GnuPG Key D9414F70 Software developer Systems technician Inter7 Internet Technologies, Inc.
