What is it exactly that you need to achieve? PHP script doesnt read a MySQL data files, MySQL server does. You can configure your OS and filesystem rights, so that only MySQL server can read them.

Is there anyway by which I can configure the MySQL so that only PHP script can read it and if you happen to copy the Data files and try to use it, that will be useless. I know, this is been in discussion before, but if I can get any other idea to it, I would appreciate it Thank you in advance, Suhas
