They can be different, if you don't want your "normal" user to have table create/update/drop rights. In practice, that's the only thing the "admin" user does that the normal user doesn't, and that's normal only during running update.php. So if your normal user has those rights, they can very well be the same value. -Chad _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
