I have done this on about 72,000 domains. Set up one master group. Allow databases to be created under the name the user wants. Then configure the grant statement so that it uses their virtual host name.
GRANT ALL on dbasename TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] IDENTIFIED BY 'somepassword'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; The server will automatically answer on the virtual socket. Regards, ~Kelly W.

This is what I'll probably do... but I've seen it done (on our ISP's host for example) and I was kinda wondering how it was done... Thanks though!
