I know I can login via ssh and run $mysqlshow But I would then have to parse the outputted text, is there an easier way (I'm using Perl locally here).
The pitfall of running it locally is that you DO have to password protect your database user since it's an outside connection to run "SHOW DATABASES"; I tried $man mysqlshow, but didn't see any easy way of simply returning a \n seperated list of databases. Any suggestions? I also need to do this for postgresql if anyone else knows of a standalone app that dumps the databases for a specific user. -- Anthony Ettinger Signature: http://chovy.dyndns.org/hcard.html
