Am I right in believing that there is no way of securely limiting a mysql
user to logging in from a specific account? (This is with the latest
version of MySQL on Caldera OpenLinux 2.2). The issue is that I need a
CGI to connect to the database, so it needs to store a password to connect
with. I can use Apache's suEXEC module to store the password in a file
readable only by the user that the CGI is run as, but still, this is
rather insecure since the password would be stored unencrypted. Ideas?
Thanks very much,
