In fact, I run 30 virtual servers, and 10 of them have their own databases on the same MySQL server. I set up a different database for each one, and give each one a username and password that only has access to each one, (I even put a copy og phpMyAdmin on each site, configured to admin only that database!) Works great. --Brian -----Original Message----- From: j.urban [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, January 06, 2002 7:44 AM To: Matthew Darcy Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Using MYSQL and PHP With Vitual Apache Servers ? Why not just create separate databases for each virtual server? It sounds like a perfect situation to create multiple databases, as databases do provide data separation... mysql> create database Virtual1; mysql> create database Virtual2; mysql> create database Virtual3; mysql> create database Virtual4; mysql> show databases; +----------+ | Database | +----------+ | Virtual1 | | Virtual2 | | Virtual3 | | Virtual4 | +----------+ And then in the PHP code for each website, you connect to the appropriate database. Say for website Virtual2: $dbh = mysql_connect("localhost","user","pass"); mysql_select_db('Virtual2'); ... Access schema for website Virtual2 ... http://www.mysql.com/doc/C/R/CREATE_DATABASE.html http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-select-db.php Good luck.
