# UID Auth DB Module

## Admin Guide

### Overview

This module contains all authentication related functions that need the access to the database. This module should be used together with auth module, it cannot be used independently because it depends on the module. Select this module if you want to use database to store authentication information like subscriber usernames and passwords. If you want to use radius authentication, then use auth_radius instead.

### Dependencies

The module depends on the following modules (in other words the listed modules must be loaded before this module):

- ### auth

  Generic authentication functions.

- ### database

  Any database module (currently mysql, postgres, dbtext)
