I want users to only be able to modify their own records, and they already have passwords (numbers) since this is an existing database. Is it possible to use these existing passwords to allow each user to edit their record? I found the convert password mod but the db has no usernames, which it requires (it seems). Or, is it possible to set a certain field as 'password'?

You can use the existing passwords, however, you will either have to use a default username to upgrade or convert your existing database to DBMAN or re-write the auth.pl script to only check the password and also re-write the db.cgi script to recognize the password field in the default.pass file as the db_userid.

Basically, hacking the scripts would be more trouble than its worth...I would create a generic username.
