I'm writing a backend for some ftp demon on C. I want to make it possible
to authorize server's clients via pgsql. And I have a such problem:

I have a function FCN_VALIDATE_LOGIN which checks if a given users name is ok.

It's looks like this (I've removed some debug code) :

---cut 8<---

int
FCN_VALIDATE_LOGIN (const char *login)
{
PGresult *res;

char *query;
query = malloc(256);

sprintf(query, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE name=\'%s\';", login);

res = PQexec(conn, query);

if (!res || PQresultStatus(res) != PGRES_TUPLES_OK) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", PQresultErrorMessage(conn));
printf("Error\n");
}

if (PQntuples(res) == 1) {
int uid_field_index;
unsigned int *uid;

uid_field_index = PQfnumber(res, "uid");
uid = (int *) PQgetvalue(res, 0, uid_field_index);

#ifdef DEBUG
fprintf(stderr, "uid_field_index = %i\n uid %i\n", uid_field_index, uid);
#endif
// return uid;
} else { // Not such user
return -1;
}

PQclear(res);
}

---cut 8<---

And I have a such table:

---cut 8<---

CREATE TABLE users (
name character varying NOT NULL,
passwd character varying,
home character varying,
groups character varying NOT NULL,
rights character varying NOT NULL,
uid int4 NOT NULL,
ip_allowed character varying,
max_dl_speed integer,
bytes_ul_total bigint,
bytes_dl_total bigint,
ratio integer,
flags character varying,
user_slots integer,
leech_slots integer
);

---cut 8<---

I have only one row in this table where uid is '1001'.

wzdftpd=# select uid from users;
uid
------
1001
(1 row)

But instead of '1001' "uid" value is '134820376'. Where I was wrong?
