[Nestor Florez]

Dan,

Yes,  It looks like the only recurse now is to upgrade.  The FLUSH was done a long time ago when the database and the users were created.
The idea came from basically having different users and I wanted to allow them to view the data over the web using thier existing database user and password.

Yes I think I will upgrade after the weekend :-)

Thanks again,


Nestor :-)

So, what happens if you go to a command line and try to log in with the 
information you provided in the variables $user and $pwd.   If you
don't get in, you need to issue the "flush privileges" command to the 
MySQL server from the command line interface.

Also, in another email, you mention the fact that you're using an older 
version of the program.  Not good.  There are security vulnerabilities in 
them.  Upgrade now.  You'll solve your problem of trying to hack your own 
login page AND tighten security.
