NSS MySQL Library

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 1.1

Notes:
1.1 is a minor bugfix release.  FreeBSD users, however, should
take note of the new sample configurations provided - see the
ChangeLog for more information.

Changes: * CHANGE: 'configure' now takes just --with-mysql to specify MySQL location instead of two separate (--with-mysql-inc and --with-mysql-lib) options. The following base locations are automatically searched in this order: /usr, /usr/local, /usr/local/mysql, /opt/local, /opt/local/mysql. * BUGFIX: Try query a few more times if it fails; corrects issues with reset idle connections which should result in a valid reconnect and query, but caused 1 'user unknown' error. * BUGFIX: Groups without members weren't showing up in getgrent's * BUGFIX: Don't leak any symbols except what's necessary - prevents problems with differing MySQL library versions. Classic example is Apache/PHP using different version than the one statically linked in the libnss-mysql RPM. On Linux, this requires libtool >= 1.5.2 * DOCS: The FreeBSD sample now contains proper shadow implementation. ! PREVIOUS SAMPLES ALLOWED NON-ROOT USERS TO SEE ENCRYPTED ! PASSWORDS * DOCS: Updated README to better suit FreeBSD installations * DOCS: Added Q&A about -R necessity under older Solaris installations.
