User auth

RT Users
1

I have a list of users/passwords already in a mysql database that I would like for rt to authenticate against. Does any one have any idea how I should go about doing this? (files to recode, config options, etc). So far rt has been a pain to get going but this is the last thing i need and am really anxious to get it up and running finally. Thanks in advance

The first question to answer is are they in the same format
as RT’s passwords? If they are I would just have a cron
job that replicates them over at regular intervals.
