Right now I need to manage group memberships both in a database and in the authzsvnaccess file, while I need to maintain the usernames and password only in the database.He only solution today is to write a piece of code that exports the groups
As far as I know the only solution available today is to write a tiny
application that exports the groups from the mysql database and builds
an authz file based on that. If you know a little coding (in any
language that can connect to mysql) that shouldn't be very difficult.
The groups a user belongs to are not passed to the authz module. All
it knows is the username.
