I think you may need to elaborate a bit as this question is somewhat confusing.
Are you asking about the zm db?
In the monitor settings you can use a host name if you manage you host files or your own dns. Other wise use IP's.

You only need a user for the camera if you want it authenticated.

Hope that helps,
Corey

I meant in the ZM database .>>>>> User table

What is driving my question is that cambozola starts ok then I get "failed to connect acess denied" see my other threads

i dont think thats a user thing, to be sure disbale authentication for a bit and see if it works then

When you change authentication options, you must restart zm so that those services start with the new settings. Otherwise all the child processes are using the auth method that they started with and not the current method as defined in the database which is where the web app pulls it's method realtime. Probably a good idea to stop the service, update the auth method, then start the service.
