    Description

      Ok, this page needs a few fixes.

      • Starting with CB Server 5.0, there is no such thing as bucket password. So, the section "databases.foo_db.password" is not for "bucket password": it's for CB Server user's password that should have sufficient permissions to work with the specified bucket (it wouldn't hurt to least the minimal permissions). Other mentions of bucket password should be removed or marked as "for CB Server prior to 5.0".
      • Same goes for bucket username: no such thing. It needs to be referred to as something similar to "user with proper permissions to access the specified bucket".
      • There needs to be a better differentiation between "users" and "username". Users exist only in the context of Sync Gateway; they are represented as records in the config file with the corresponding JSON documents created in the bucket on CB Server side. Username is CB Server RBAC artifact.
      • How does allow_empty_password option work? We cannot create users on CB Server side without a password. Is it for pre-5.0 compatibility only?
