MySQLAliasAuth requires IPField config variable to be set
and to point to some column in the table, if IPField is missing
the default value "Password" is used. Not a perfect solution,
but IPField should be configured anyway.
IPField should contain AliasAuth rule, like:
"allow"
or
"reject" (reject is by default if no alias is found in the database and the authentication module is set as required)
or
"sigip:195.71.129.69:1720"
look at the documentation (AliasAuth) and example ini files for more details.
