instead, a module was written to take advantage of that so that any database that has a DBD port, could use authentication, including mysql. The current package is libapache-dbi-perl if you do an `apt-cache show libapache-dbi-perl` it talks about AuthDBI.pm which is its replacment. it provides some examples so you dont need to know perl :P -- Adam McDaniel Infrastructure Technology Consultant M-Tech Mercury Information Technology, Inc.
