Libnss isn't bad if you want to avoid the PAM route but still have MySQL authentication with non-MySQL programs.

PAM "supports" mysql, but my experience with it hasn't been easy. The last version of pam_mysql released, 0.5, is over 2 years old. I found a mandrake src rpm of 0.4.7, and modified it for FC1 with 0.5, but I never had much success with it for multiple auth (I think I got it work once for ssh login, but that was the extent of my success). If anyone is interested in my src or rpm packages, they are available at http://www.noidea.us/easyfile/index.php?folder=5 for download.

I said I would use mysql, if it was only for dovecot, but I use PAM and unix password database. I know how to do this with mysql, that's not a problem. I use unix password database now :(.
hmm why do you enforce the domain part in the login if you just want local users? if a user just logs in with "username", your problem would be solved. wouldnt it?
btw: postfix supports mysql, so does pam and many other services.
