Ok, I believe I understood (not quite sure...). Would someone please
admit that this stuff is a mindboggliong matter?
I am now setting things up and I quickly realise that I need a good
script for this. To add a user, I have to:
1. Add a admin/user host pair to httpd.conf. MidgardDatabase might be
called usrN.
2. Create a db usrN
3. Edit the table mysql.db so that mysql-user midgard has write privs on
usrN
4. Create the tables in usrN
5. Populate person and member (maybe grp too?) in usrN so that an
administrator exists
6. Create a host entry in the page db
7. Restart apache
Seems very longwinded. Has anyone a script that does this? Also, what is
the minumum to be done at step 5? Jesus....this is a tricky matter!!
