You need to configure your script correctly, that's it. You are reading the documentation on the web which refers to last release, 8.10, and using tarball of 8.11 -- that's where some of your confusion comes from.
You need to rebuild with mysql support (make include_modules=mysql all, make include_modules=mysql install) and uncomment authentication-related lines from ser.cfg. The value of realm can be changed in the first parameter of www_(authorize|challenge). To deal with Windows Messenger bugs, preferablys set it to your sever's domain name. -Jiri
ps -- I suggest you stick to problem reporting guidelines as on our website. It is hard otherwise to see what's wrong. Scripts and messages are important.

Ser Version: ser 0.8.11rc4 (i386/linux) Downloaded from http://iptel.org/ser/tarballhttp://iptel.org/ser/tarball
After downloading the .tgz on August 23:
- Installed latest version of MySQL
- ran: make all
- ran: make install
- performed steps outlined in Dan Austins HOWTO to enable MySQL authentication in ser.cfg
- Added user/s
- Restarted ser
I noticed that users not in the database could still register with ser.
FHI - There seams to be a discrepancy between Dan Austins HOWTO and the INSTALL document on http://iptel.org/http://iptel.org. Dans only mentioned uncommenting /usr/lib/ser/modules/mysql.so where the INSTALL document mentions loadmodule "/usr/local/lib/ser/modules/auth.so" as well. The reality is, there is a third line namely loadmodule "/usr/local/lib/ser/modules/auth_db.so". Regardless, I tried all variations.
Just to be sure, I re-installed the MySQL module: make include_modules=mysql install
Any ideas why my test users can still register without authentication? Why my users with valid accounts added via serctl seem to register rather than authenticate?
Thanks,
Chad
