Subject: Intercept database  Connection request
Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2003 09:22:17 +0100
Message-ID: <003401c392f5$71f5c1c0$1601a8c0@ITAXP003> (raw)

Is it possible to intercept database connection requests via a trigger or something ?

I have a front end application which uses a fixed user name password to connect to the database and then does it's own authentication / access rights management.

We currently have in the region of 5,000 users and I really don't want to have to create "actual" database user accounts for each one....
