RE: [PEAR] Re: PEAR Auth: Duplicate usernames

I did kind of the same thing, only temporary. Added a unique index and wrapped my addUser() call like this: if (PEAR::isError($add = $a->addUser('fred','fredpass'))) { echo 'there was an error<br>'; echo $add->getMessage(); } else { echo 'user added'; } But not being too good yet with PEAR Error, or Auth, I'm not sure if that's the best way.
