The Genoret Database is protected through a two levels login and password system.
- the Website http://www-genoret.u-strasbg.fr/genoret
- the SQL relational database hosting your data
For these two levels you can use the same login and password
Why two times the same login and password ?
We could imagine to ask only one time the password ...
... but the protection of the SQL relational database has to be very secure and we don't want it to be dependant of the less secure password system of the Apache website.
Sorry ! Security has a cost.
