Description : Store your UNIX user accounts in MySQL. "libnss-mysql" enables the following:
:
: * System-wide authentication and name service using a MySQL database.
: Applications do not need to be MySQL-aware or modified in any way.
:
: * Storing authentication information in a database instead of text files.
:
: * Creation of a single authentication database for multiple servers.
: This is often referred to as the "Single Sign-on" problem.
:
: * Writing data-modification routines (IE self-management web interface).
:
: libnss-mysql is similar to NIS or LDAP. It provides the same centralized
: authentication service through a database. What does this mean? Username,
: uid, gid, password, etc comes from a MySQL database instead of
: /etc/password, /etc/shadow, and /etc/group. A user configured in MySQL will
: look and behave just like a user configured in /etc/passwd. Your
: applications such as ls, finger, sendmail, qmail, exim, postfix, proftpd,
: X, sshd, etc. will all 'see' these users!
