   2 /** auth_db_sync_users.php
   3  *
   4  * This script is meant to be called from a system cronjob to
   5  * sync moodle user accounts with external database.
   6  * It is required when using internal passwords (== passwords not defined in external database).
   7  *
   8  * Recommended cron entry:
   9  * # 5 minutes past 4am
  10  * 5 4 * * * /usr/bin/php -c /etc/php4/cli/php.ini /var/www/moodle/auth/db/auth_db_sync_users.php
  11  *
  12  * Notes:
  13  *   - If you have a large number of users, you may want to raise the memory limits
  14  *     by passing -d memory_limit=256M
  15  *   - For debugging & better logging, you are encouraged to use in the command line:
  16  *     -d log_errors=1 -d error_reporting=E_ALL -d display_errors=0 -d html_errors=0
  17  *
  18  * Performance notes:
  19  * + The code is simpler, but not as optimized as its LDAP counterpart.
  20  *
