Project Description

mysql_auth is a basic authenticator for Squid
Proxy. You can configure all MySQL variables for
your existing user/password database (dbhost,
dbadmin, dbpasswd, dbname, tablename, columns
name), or create a new database. It includes a
utility called mypasswd that updates your
database. Another form of mypasswd, called
mypasswd.cgi, is also available.

0.7

This release changes mysql_connet() to mysql_real_connect(), and adds a new configuration parameter: mysqld_socket. mypasswd's INSERT query has been modified: the query reads the column's name from the configuration file, not a static query.

0.5

A critical bug in which mysql_auth didn't do anything when it read a ^D (control-d) character from standard input was fixed. When the admin sends a SIGHUP to squid (with '-k reload'), it restarts a few mysql_auth processes.
