Its in configdir, along with the rest of the dbs.  Its not created by 
default, since its not required for normal operation.

Actually, its not the most efficient implementation right now, since it 
does an open/read/close per login.  I need to rework it so that it does 
the open at service init time, leaves the db open for reading for the 
each process reuse, and closes it at service shutdown time.  This will 
take a little work, because we plan on using a remote MySQL database at 
CMU, so the actual read function will also have to reconnect if necessary.
