Change log:  Added example for users with SQL.

  * If using the sql backend with the {{horde_users}} table, the  
password must be in md5() format (and not the !MySQL password()  
format, for example).
  * {{horde/scripts/sql/script.initial_horde_user.sql}} is an SQL  
script which will create an initial admin user for sql authentication.  
This can be used to login and configure the system. If you use this,  
be sure to change it as soon as possible so it does not become a  
security risk.
  * If using IMAP authentication, see the comments in  
{{horde/imp/config/servers.php}} for options you may need to specify.
+
+To use the default mySQL database:
+
+1) Administration->setup->horde->authentication
+2) Choose SQL authentication
+3) Put the planned administrative username in the Administrators field.
+4) Administration->setup->users
+5) Create users
+
+Y our users will have to either have the same login/pass as they do  
on the IMAP server or they will have to login separately to IMP. The  
other option is to have your IMAP server use SQL authentication, and  
use the SQL with custom queries backend in horde to connect to the  
same database/tables as your IMAP
+server.

  +++ What are the default user name and password for the administrator?

  There are none. Since Horde supports a broad variety of different  
authentication backends and you are free to choose any of them for  
your Horde installation, the selected backend decides which are valid  
login credentials. And we didn't add an authentication independent  
backdoor to Horde, for obvious reasons.
