By the way, max_connections is a server variable, not a user variable. I assume you're really talking about MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR, as used in the GRANT statement?

Re: max_connections being ignored/overridden?
Yes, I am referring to MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR, poorly worded on my part sorry. Users are granted access to only one database (barring errors in my scripts) and I did verify that his entry in mysql.user is 200 for max_connections. And the connections in the logfile are for the same user each time. .and they continue.about 10 per second :( Regards, Gary SuperID Huntress === FreeSQL.org offering free database hosting to developers Visit http://www.freesql.org - Original Message - From: Paul DuBois [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gary Huntress [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, June 28, 2003 5:45 PM Subject: Re: max_connections being ignored/overridden?

You say other accounts get rejected when they hit the limit. Do you have other such accounts that are set up exactly the same way as the problematic user? What version of MySQL are you using?

Re: max_connections being ignored/overridden?
I regularly have users email me reporting that they've hit the max (usually begging for me to raise or remove the limit) An example (from this morning) is: SQL Error : 1226 User 'algalord' has exceeded the 'max_questions' resource (current value: 800) I similarly do get reports of connection limits too, so I have assumed the quotas operate properly. My server has two databases owned by root. All other databases are created via one script and permissions are set with the following statement: grant select, insert, update, delete, index, alter, create, drop on $dbname.* to $username@'%' identified by '$password' with max_queries_per_hour 800 max_updates_per_hour 0 max_connections_per_hour 200 (note the three php variables). I verified this particular users entry in mysql.user and it is correct.Users are mutually exclusive. A user has access to only their 1 database. My version is 4.0.13-standard-log.
