My recomendation would be either SQL or LDAP fo ease of use reasons. eDirectory, SunOne/RH/Fedora/Netscape DS, OpenLDAP are all good LDAP servers in descending order of Features. Oracle, Postgresql, Mysql are all good SQL servers in descending order of Features. Which one you pick is really up to your taste, budget and skillset more than performance issues unless you are talking about > 1000 Auth requests per second. Personally we use Postgresql for most installations... Cheers -- Peter Nixon http://www.peternixon.net/ PGP Key: http://www.peternixon.net/public.asc
