Re: Re: Re: Re: Login Scripts

How do I get the Admin to log in? I need a script that authenticates between user and admin. I need to change the password so that a group of people can access the info without a prior group being able to. So the best way to do this is combined with MySql? How do I go about that? I realise that a shared account is a bad idea but that doesnt bother me at this stage.

What is your opererating system? Are you changing a login password for an account on that operating system or a password for a web application or a password for a mySQL database user or something else? -- Eric Hammond	[reply]

The obvious answer to this one is have two separate logins/passwords - one 'user', one administator. Where MySQL comes into the equation I'm really not sure, unless you mean "a means to store the passwords", which could be done in all sots of ways. I don't think anyone's yet clear on what kind of system you're talking about...a CGI script? An internal network application? A single box?. A little clarification could go a long way.... Ben.	[reply]
