Create symlinks from the mysql data dir to each user's directory: /var/db/mysql/user1 -> /home/hostings/user1/data /var/db/mysql/user2 -> /home/hostings/user2/data etc. Then any table the user creates in their database will end up in their data dir. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
