Thread: how to use pam-pgsql

how to use pam-pgsql

From

Does anyone know how to set vsftpd to work with pam-pgsql for user
authentification or how to use pam-pgsql at all.

SCROLL CURSOR

From
Date:
I declare a cursor as below:
    DECLARE
            links_cur SCROLL CURSOR IS SELECT * FROM road;

and get this error:
    CONTEXT:  invalid type name "SCROLL CURSOR IS SELECT * FROM road"

If I take away 'SCROLL', it has no problem.

Any hint?

Thanks,
cyw

What PG version?  IIRC plpgsql didn't allow the SCROLL modifier there
before 8.3.

Does "vsftpd" support PAM?

If yes you have to configure PAM to use pgSQL.  ;-)

What about reading the documentation?

The SQL SCHEME is included in the tarball  so  create  a  database  like
"system" and load the *.sql file into it.  Now you can add  normal  unix
users to it.

Thanks, for your reply.
I have managed to make it work in the meantime :-)
Reading the documentation can be very informative.
There is a ton of mysql documentation but for postgresql not so many.
