Using MySql to Authenticate

Right now I am using OpenLDAP with BerkeleyDB backend. I want to eliminate OpenLDAP and just use MySql. I read on here that you can authenticate using MySql but you need to write your own AuthProvider. I am able to do that I am just wondering if anyone has done so. I need to know how to configure wildfire once I write the AuthProvider.

Hi,

is this mysql database the database Wildfire uses or a seperate one?

LG

MySql is a separate database.
