PAMMySQLTools: Manage libnss-mysql and pam-mysql Users via the Shell
Reading time: 2 minutes

Through my work, I faced the problem that we wanted to authenticate users centrally via MySQL. This is not inherently a problem thanks to libnss-mysql and pam-mysql, but unfortunately, there is a lack of programs to manage users effectively.
Therefore, I have written tools that imitate the Linux programs user{add,mod,del} and group{add,mod,del} and published them as PAMMySQLTools on PyPI.
