Break lines at 80 characters. Add a Table of Contents and reorder sections
to have the actual tutorial part first.
Things that still need doing:
* Move limitations and other documentation to the actual router
documentation
* Review and simplify examples
The avrorouter now uses the parameters from the source service. This
removes the need for redundant parameter definition in the avrorouter
service when they are defined in the binlogrouter service as parameters.
Added some missing configuration sanity checks and updated the tutorial to
reflect the new configuration method introduced in 2.1.
The feedback system wasn't used and was starting to cause problems on
Debian 9 where the libcurl required different version of OpenSSL than what
MaxScale was linked against.
The CREATE USER statement in the example document now also has a
password. This should make it more obvious that the same credentials must
work from all hosts.
It's now possible to use both a Unix domain socket and host/port
when connecting with MaxAdmin to MaxScale.
By default MaxAdmin will attempt to use the default Unix domain
socket, but if host and/or port has been specified, then an inet
socket will be used.
maxscaled will authenticate the connection attempt differently
depending on whether a Unix domain socket is used or not. If
a Unix domain socket is used, then the Linux user id will be
used for the authorization, otherwise the 1.4.3 username/password
handshake will be performed.
adminusers has now been extended so that there is one set of
functions for local users (connecting locally over a Unix socket)
and one set of functions for remote users (connecting locally
or remotely over an Inet socket).
The local users are stored in the new .../maxscale-users and the
remote users in .../passwd. That is, the old users of a 1.4
installation will work as such in 2.0.
One difference is that there will be *no* default remote user.
That is, remote users will always have to be added manually using
a local user.
The implementation is shared; the local and remote alternatives
use common functions to which the hashtable and filename to be
used are forwarded.
The commands "[add|remove] user" behave now exactly like they did
in 1.4.3, and also all existing users work out of the box.
In addition there is now the commands "[enable|disable] account"
using which Linux accounts can be enabled for MaxAdmin usage.
