Albert, the intention of the MaxDBProxy is that it should behave mostly like a MySQL Server / InnoDB. Indeed the proxy was developed by linking the MaxDB SQLDBC interface against a mysql server and switching off the normal storage engines. If you have a look at the coding you'll find that it's the coding for mysqld with some files modified and a couple of extra files that will do the necessary syntax (and maybe semantics) transformation. If you run a make on linux the proxy as well as mysqld will be build - they are just to different variants. auth_mysql seems to be a simple client program. this should work with the proxy - maybe already now. But you need the next version of the proxy to have mysql databases mapped to maxdb schemas, replikation possible and other sql syntax transformed. DML commands with most of mysql syntax work alreay, CREATE/DROP TABLE/INDEX also, ALTER TABLE does not work.
Unfortunately I didn't get any feedback regarding the proxy so far. Did anyone already put it to a test? Let us know your judgement!

We need this for a upcoming big project. Could you tell me a time range when the maxdb 7.5.00.>=8 is coming up as production release? A lot of thanks in advance.
