First off, my understanding from the docs and the INSTALL readme was that MySQL support was native - in order to get it working, I'd just need to edit the authmysqlrc file (I haven't gotten there yet). So I used the default build configuration. I could have missed something in the docs I read, so I was wrong, please let me know. Also, if using RPMs is better, please let me know.
The default configuration file defines the names of various tables and fields that you're going to use for authentication.
Unless your actual database schema just happens to match the suggested default configuration, nothing is going to work.
And, using RPMs is highly recommended. Although you still need to do this configuration, RPMs will take care of properly compiling and installing MySQL support.
