Using the OS X binary dist of mysql 4.0.14. I put my.cnf in both the data dir and /etc, restarted the server, but it doesn't seem to be reading the config.
I added these options to the my-large.cnf under [mysqld]: safe-show-database safe-user-create And tested with a user who had no privelages to the mysql db, but the db shows up with the SHOW DATABASES command. Does mysqladmin variables show these options? If not, how can I tell what options are active? -- Randall Perry sysTame Xserve Web Hosting/Co-location Website Development/Promotion Mac Consulting/Sales http://www.systame.com/ -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
