is there any way to (config file or something) to preset what a database directory's permissions are when it is created (i want the database's directory to have permissions of 755 for a program that i'm writing, but it appears to default to 700)... i know i can write a script to perform this operation at regular intervals, but i'd prefer it done immediately upon the creation of a new database... any ideas??? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
