Database Password Ignored?

Post by usli06 » Mon Feb 10, 2014 4:29 pm

Hello,

From within admintools, after choosing option 4 (Stop Database), then typing an incorrect database password when asked, the database still gets shut down. Why doesn't admintools report that I entered the wrong password?!?!

I think its because you are logged in as database superuser. DB password actually required for remote connection.
That makes a lot of sense! Thanks, sKwa :)
