Configuration for authMySQL Auth plugin for authentication with FUDforum, which let's do:

• Only basic authentication
• No user modification/adding. This assumes that all user accounts will be created and maintained through FUDforum.

Tested on FUDforum version 2.7.6.

Use the Config Manager or add it to the conf/local.protected.php to store the config protected.

Newer FUDforum Versions uses fud26 as table prefix.
