Re: [cobalt-users] Re:How to create a MySQL database for a user using Webmin

["Micha Kagie" <kagie@xxxxxxxxx>]

The SQL itself is clear. I only want to have access for a customer to his
own database, he wants to use phpMyAdmin. phpMyAdmin for my clients sounds
good to me, because I have disabled telnet and I don't want customers to use
SSH to my machine as well.

So any help on webmin or phpMyAdmin would be very appreciated
