Hi all,

Can anyone help me please?

I have a database with hundreds of tables and I want to lock down certain
tables for select only.

The order of presidence for mysql privs as far as I can tell is that if
there are database level privileges, these override the table level privs.
I don't want to have to issue a grant for each of the tables in the db - but
only wish to specify which tables need to be read only.

I could go into the datadir and chmod 440 the files in question, but this
would deny write privs to all users wheras I would like certain users to
have write access.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Andrew
