[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-5212) Reference Manual: language on authentication/authorization needs changes for several URL attribute topics

["Kim Haase (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5212?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13027660#comment-13027660 ] 

Kim Haase commented on DERBY-5212:
----------------------------------

Knut Anders researched this issue extensively and reported his findings in DERBY-5203. His conclusions are as follows.

I propose this new wording for all replication attributes (I think it applies to all, but I've only tested startSlave=true and startMaster=true), and for drop=true:

"If authentication is turned on, you must also specify this attribute in conjunction with the user=userName and password=userPassword
attributes. If both authentication and SQL authorization are turned on, the user must be the database owner."

For shutdown=true, we could use the same wording with the extra qualification that it only applies to shutdown of a single database. We would also need to mention that system shutdown requires user=userName/password=userPassword if both authentication and SQL authorization are enabled.
