Hi Ignacio!
It has always been the sysadmin's job to maintain security. Any one who is not doing that should be fired for gross incompetence (my opinion, of
course).
Right but I still don't know what is your opinion about the 'only_db' setting ;)
Heh. It was in there when I originally wrote the reply, but I edited it out.
I like only_db. I've had instances where I wanted a user to see only a single database (and yes, I also granted permissions properly ;) ) because they were _not_ a computer person and seeing all the databases would only have confused them. Being able to set up a second copy of phpMyAdmin (2.1.0 at the time) and setting the single viewable database was quite convenient.
