I'm trying to control access to our Intranet.2. Is there a way to sync the database so that it adds and deletes
entries as unix users are added and deleted?
i think it's up to you to script that. it'd help if you explained what you are trying to do, it sounds redundant and unnecessary with the information you've given so far.
Initially, the process is:
mysqladmin create http_auth mysql http_auth mysql> create table mysql_auth ( -> username char(25), -> passwd char(25), -> groups char(25), -> primary key (username) -> ); Correct?
The question is, is there a simple way to sync the unix user data to
http_auth or do I need to have scripts that will tie in useradd and
userdel to the necessary sql commands?
Maybe we need more information on the process. For example, do the users get a local account?, are they just being authenticated by radius?, or what exactly are the parameters?
