There has been some work on MySQL checkpassword support, although I never tested it myself. Here's a link to a download page where patches for stock checkpassword are available: http://iain.cx/qmail/mysql/download.html It might be interesting to add to the Binc project a sort of "framework" that makes it easy to write checkpassword authenticators for different languages. We could have scripts for bash, perl, python and code for c or c++ bundled, with "have your stuff return true or false _here_" :-). >Hope all is well with you Andy, and that your workload is better of late. Thanks Gary, yes it's much better now. New job, no worries. :-) Andy -- Andreas Aardal Hanssen | http://www.andreas.hanssen.name/gpg Author of Binc IMAP | "It is better not to do something | than to do it poorly."
