  You can look up some users in LDAP, others in SQL, others in flat
files, others via Perl.  And you can configure that differently per client.

  The flexibility of the server can be a little daunting.  It's best to
start with what you have, (which users in which DB), and then to create
policies that direct packets to the appropriate configuration.
