Problem: apache2 can check a database for user id password/group info. Its created with the dbmmanage that comes with apache2. apache2 2.0.47 and dbmmanage pick different kinds of dbm files and can not talk to each other. This is on 4.9-PRERELEASE. apache2 uses some glue to run with any of the many kinds of db/dbm/ngdbm files. It picks the kind with a .pag and .dir file (db i think). There is a runtime config directive AuthDBMType. However it only has the one type built in. dbmmanage uses perl's AnyDBM_File which picks ndbm. dmmanage doesnt have any switches to pick the kind of db/dbm. With apache 1.x on freebsd it used ndbm for both apache and dbmmanage without any hassles.
