PHP/mySQL authentication for DBMan
Hi,

I am sorry if I am wasting your time here with a stupid question...

In my workplace (university) We use DBman to handle several small databases. We are in a process of moving from a static html gateway page to a content management system that is based on PHP/mySQL. In the CMS, users need to login to modify pages, and I was wondering if it is possible to use the information from the session table in mySQL to login to the DBMan databases using a php code, so that the users need to login only once - into the CMS.

Any suggestions?

Snap.

Yes it's possible.

Don't know how to do it, but one of our guys has done something similar. I'll see if I can find out how he did it if no one else can help.
