Hi Duran,

I just went through this myself, and this is what worked for me:

Set up the initial user for your db with
horde/scripts/sql/script.initial_horde_user.sql

Second, make sure that you've set Horde to use sql authorization in
horde/config/conf.php
$conf['auth']['admins'] = array('script-generated-sql-username-here');
$conf['auth']['params']['app'] = 'imp';
$conf['auth']['driver'] = 'sql';

I believe the key setting above is auth.driver.  params.app tells it what
app to use to display the login screen, and auth.driver tells it where to
get the auth data.  Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong, though...as
I've just become acquainted with horde the last few days.

Regardless, once I set the auth.driver setting to sql, horde started
authenticating against my sql db.  It hadn't been prior to that.
