No, all user account information is stored in the "mysql" database. I've never used Winsqladm but surely it has a utility to create MySQL users. If not then I suggest reading: http://www.mysql.com/doc/U/s/User_Account_Management.html Or maybe you want to look into another tool that DOES have user account management functions. But if PHP is accessing MySQL directly (which it should be) then you shouldn't have to do anything with DSN's or ODBC... -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
