Manual:$wgBotPasswordsDatabase

Details
Define the database name for the  table for use with the new man>Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Bot passwords|bot authentication system.

To use a database with a table prefix, set this variable to " ".

If set to " ", the regular database will be used.

Note that  must be set to " " (which is the default) for this to work.

The goal of this variable is to support cross-wiki sharing of bot passwords: the bot_passwords table references users by their man>Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Central ID|central IDs so only one instance of the table should exist in the whole wikifarm.
