Subject: Re: [mSQL] new msql user!

I've may a similar situation with my "virtual server" provider (I hope expla
ining my situation may give you an angle on this). To get permissions to cre
ate databases, and subsequently manipulate them, you may need to contact you
r host administrator to get him/her to set things up for you. In my case, th
e admin created the msqldb dir in my "virtual server" root, where my dbs end
 up after doing the msqladmin create foobar command.
