You can take a look at it.  Basically, the proxy records the
conversation with the client until it decides whether it is a read or
write operation, at which time it either processes it itself or passes
it off to the write master.

I don't recall where the recording starts, but all that should really
be necessary to enable pserver is to make sure that it starts when the
connection first opens so that the client's side of the authentication
conversation can be played back to the write server.  It might even
work out of the box if you disable the checks in the parsing routines
that prevent writeproxy from working with the pserver method.

Cheers,

Derek
