does not work is because that command would be suicidal in terms of
security.

If you are hosting a large number of ecommerce sites and granting any user
access to those databases then you would want security to be far tighter.
Allowing that sort of access is about as secure as publishing the data on
facebook.

That's not a problem in this case - the data is *intended* to be shared between all users of the system. It's data required by the software that the sites run on - which is simple, non-confidential stuff like basic settings as well as data which each site deliberately exports for copying by the others. The end users are not different organisations, they are different trading divisions within the same organisation.

What version of MySQL are you using?

5.0.7
