I have a database program using postgres and having a PHP front end. It requires people to login to gain access. Everyone who needs to login to that database program has a system user account in that machine. (since it's also the email server) What is the best way to authenticate using the system users/passwd? (/etc/shadow ?) I hate to create a a new set of username/password in postgres for each person just to be able to login to this program. And it would really help a lot because they don't have to remember two passwords. Any help will be appreciated.
