Hello, i'm running a server for several customers using cyrus/IMAP, sendmail, apache2 and ssh.
I'm looking for a way to store all the passwords for them in _one_ database so i can manage them easily by a web interface. My solution was to store the passwords in a MySQL table. Now the problem is that cyrus and sendmail use sasldb for authentication, but ssh uses PAM. This is rather unsatisfying because libpam_mysql, libsasl2_modules_sql and mod_auth_mysql (apache) all have quite different approaches / ideologies. I had to store the passwords in plaintext because of the sasl interface, but the new mod_auth_mysql will allow encrypted passwords only... that's only one of the issues. Maybe somebody is using a similar configuration? How do big hosting sites manage their passwords? Till -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
