mySQL development update
Hello all,

I work some more on the mySQL database today.
I've uploaded updated nessus/mysql libraries:
<a href="http://www.rit.edu/~wjh3710/pub/save_mysql.c">save_mysql.c</a>
<a href="http://www.rit.edu/~wjh3710/pub/save_mysql.h">save_mysql.h</a>

Also, I've started to integrate it into the code...
. open/close the sql server connection
. open/update session information
. open/update plugin information
. open/update host information
+ most of these adhere closely to Javi's proposed schema

The diff/patches are available here:
<a
href="http://www.rit.edu/~wjh3710/pub/nessusd.c-1.3.3-patch">nessusd.c</a>
<a
href="http://www.rit.edu/~wjh3710/pub/attack.c-1.3.3-patch">attack.c</a>

These patches are made from the most updated 1.3.3 CVS release.
They have not been tested, and I can assure you that they will not work.
mysql_open_connection does not have support to tell it the address of the
SQL server, nor the username or password.

Comments?
Thanks.
