Semantics

This function modifies user data in the Firebird security database. Only a service handle associated with the SYSDBA user can it be used for modifying user data.

The user name string can be up to 31 characters long. The password string can also be up to 31 characters long, but only the first 8 characters are significant.

The function returns True if the user data was successfully modified, otherwise it returns false.

Example

The below example sets the password for user 'peterpan' to 'qq':

// attach to the server with proper privileges
if (($svc = fbird_service_attach('localhost', 'sysdba',
                'masterkey')) == FALSE) {
   $ib_error = fbird_errmsg();
}

// set user 'peterpan' password to 'qq'
if (($result = fbird_modify_user($svc, 'peterpan', 'qq')) != FALSE) {
   echo 'User password modified';
}
else {
   $ib_error = fbird_errmsg();
}
fbird_service_detach($service);
