[Pam-mysql-general] pam_mysql and nss_mysql

[Florian V. <flo...@un...>]

Hi James,
[hi list,]

thanks for your reply - it reached me as I was writing this mail - seems
you were faster ;)


 |It's on my todo list to make pam_mysql use the same config file and=20
 |options to streamline this.=20

I'll do it!
(Of course, only if it's fine 4 U)

From your TODO list (in the forum), it seems you want to merge the code
itself - not only the config files!
What do you see more usefull, easier to do,... ?


 |Getting the homedirectory and shell, etc
 |from pam_mysql is the most requested 'feature' I see requested.

Yeah - but as discussed on the pam-list not feasable by PAM itself...


 |I'm not sure if you saw it, but someone submitted a feature request in

Didn't see it yet...
I had the same idea/discussion with my supervisor.
His answer was: The MySQL server is (usually) in the same local
(protected) network - thus SSL between db-srv & pam_mysql is not as
important as that.
Maybe I'll give a look at this if I've time..


Is it ok for you (and all on this list) if I merge my coding into the SF
tree only when I've finished the work I'm supposed to do?
Sure, I'll do some mantainance afterwards - but there no guarantee for
time...


@James:
Could you please add me as pam_mysql developer @ SF ?
My login is 'fvgoto'
tnx!
