== Installing the module ==

Apache mySQL authentication is provided by an apache module. To install it,
'''$''' sudo emerge -av mod_auth_mysql
After the emerge has completed, edit the apache configuration file so the module is loaded when the server starts.
'''$''' sudo nano -w /etc/conf.d/apache2
Ensure that the '''APACHE2_OPTS''' variable contains the directive
-D AUTH_MYSQL
Next, log into mysql as root.
'''$''' mysql -u root -p
Use the examples in the [mySQL] page to create a database and grant the desired user permissions to it. Next, create an authorization table.
mysql>USE ''yourdatabase'';

** to be updated **

Restart apache to enable the changes.
'''$''' sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
