As Joni said you need to read about the GRANT functions in the MySQL manual. But basically here's what's happening.
Each person your hosting has a specific login/pass into the database. When they login MySQL looks in the 'MySQL' database and checks the users privileges. By default Ensim sets up the database so that only the website associated with a specific DB can access it. So you'll need to make changes to the user's account (in MySQL) with a GRANT statement allowing him to have access to another specific database. Make sure you don't GRANT him access to everything, as that is naturally a massive security hole. ~ Matthew -----Original Message----- From: Georgie Casey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, August 17, 2002 9:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] mySQL settings rite, i run a web server and sell space to workers. my admin setup apache, mysql and php with all the settings. each customers gets one sql db with a host acc. the system runs ensim. but now i want one of my accounts do be able to access the database of another, but it wont let me. what setting do i change to allow me do this? -- Regards, Georgie Casey [EMAIL PROTECTED] *************************** http://www.filmfind.tv Online Film Production Directory *************************** -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
