| I never tried it, but using a mysql database for pam/nss seems interesting :
http://pam-mysql.sourceforge.net/
http://www.nongnu.org/nss-mysql/
Anyone tried it ?
If I have something like something like 20 or 30 GNU/Linux computers, is
there anything that could make me want to use something else than mysql,
for example LDAP ?

It depends. What will you be using the database for? Usually the
application dictates the structure behind it; not much overlap
between mysql and LDAP from what I've seen.
