A question to be answered first with this suggestion - how does gbak attach to server? Where are that credentials validated? > Don't know wether you do have the password in that context. It's plugin dependent, generally not (both legacy and srp plugins do not pass plain password to server). But this is not too big problem, gbak at client certainly knows that password and can pass to server if/when needed (starting with execution of CREATE USER operator). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
