>8.2. Database setup</H2
><P
> Since version 0.5.2 web-cyradm uses PEAR as a database abstraction layer. This adds more flexibility.
MySQL and PostgreSQL are currently supported. Please note that a patch is required for PostgreSQL
because Postfix does not support PostgreSQL natively. I strongly suggest that you use MySQL.
I know MySQL has some restrictions on transactions and stuff, but it is supported in the distributed Postfix code.

>8.4. Crypted passwords</H2
><P
>Web-cyradm supports the storage of encrypted passwords. I strongly suggest the use of encryption.
There are three methods supported at the moment: Unix-compatible (crypt), md5 and MySQL.
The Unix-compatible encryption allows you to import encrypted passwords from an
existing <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/etc/shadow</TT
>. This is the preferred option.
</P
><P
> Unfortunately, MySQL uses a proprietary encryption method which is only available
when using MySQL. I'm currently thinking about dropping support for MySQL crypt, because it only
works with MySQL and makes a migration to another database impossible. As soon as there is a method available
to re-engineer the MySQL crypt on PHP there will be a solution (Help needed in programming, legal constraints?)
</P
><P
>Check the variable <TT
CLASS="VARNAME"
>$CRYPT</TT
> in the file <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>config.inc.php</TT
>.
Value »plain« means no encryption, »crypt« means Shadow compatible encryption,
mysql means MySQL encryption.</P

including the password of the admin users. I STRONGLY suggest the use of Unix Shadow compatible encryption,
because it makes you independent of any software vendor.

The default is to have a defined prefix ($DOMAIN_AS_PREFIX=0), i.e. »test« for the domain »expample.com«.
With this scheme, the first user gets the username test0001, the second test0002 and incrementing.
