Hi Paul! Thank you for the quick response. Indeed, we expect it to work otherwise. In our application, users are authenticated by the operating system, but we were hoping to use the built-in authorization of MySql instead of developing our own. Our strategy is to automatically add users to MySql as they are given to us by the OS and assign permissions to tables using these users. Does that seem reasonable? Thank you! Henry.

Would you expect otherwise? If you have the embedded server linked into an application, it's expected that the application will have full control over the server and can do anything with any of its databases. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
