What about the mysql database itself -- the grant tables? I'm the only user right now (and my partner will join a bit later on), but I my project won't go "public" until it gets onto a more stable server, so I'm not worried about any connections being open, but won't the grant tables be accessed when I execute mysqladmin shutdown? Oh... right, I'm not executing that. Alright, that's good news! Thanks! Erik __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Find the one for you at Yahoo!
