How to forge Linux to use MySQL for user accounts and passwords.

[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
Hello community,

Could some one be able to point me to a tutorial to forge linux (fedora) to use MySQL for user accounts and passwords (/etc/passwd & /etc/shadow)?

... of course if it is possible.

I will really apreciate any help.

Thank you.

Angel
