The AceQL HTTP Server will call the method in order to grant or not client access.

Typical usage would be to check the (username, password) couple against a LDAP server or against a SSH server, etc. The method allows to retrieve:

• The name of the database to which the client wants to connect.
• The IP address of the client.

Specified by:

login in interface UserAuthenticator

Parameters:

username - the username sent by the client

password - the password to connect to the server

database - the database name to which the client wants to connect

ipAddress - the IP address of the client user

Returns:

true if the client is authenticated by the method. If false, the client side will not be authorized to send any command.

Throws:

IOException - if an IOException occurs

SQLException - if a SQLException occurs
