OK, so your using the default authpam then I believe...

You have multiple options...  If you have an organizational LDAP database
I'd recommend authldap, otherwise authmysql is quite nice and extremely
flexible.  See http://www.courier-mta.org/authlib/README.authmysql.html
for notes on setting up authmysql.


thanks. jay.

I have created the database and tables with passwd.
the necessary changes for authmysqlrc has been done as well.

do you know where I can find a sample value for the following table?

CREATE TABLE passwd (
       id                    char(128) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       crypt                 char(128) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       clear                 char(128) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       name                  char(128) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       uid                   int(10) unsigned DEFAULT '65534' NOT NULL,
       gid                   int(10) unsigned DEFAULT '65534' NOT NULL,
       home                  char(255) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       maildir               char(255) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       defaultdelivery       char(255) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       quota                 char(255) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       options               char(255) DEFAULT '' NOT NULL,
       KEY id (id(128))
);


how to get the crypt value for a user such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] r from the OS?
I tried to put some valubes for the table, but the it is rejected for the data.
