The only databases you can see on your filesystem are the ones you can query (that isn't to say that you cannot share the _files_ as long as they don't change in RAM).If you need to share actively updated databases between servers, run a SQL server of some sort and store the common databases (and only the common ones) there. Otherwise, several people have engineered their sites to update another site(s) automatically (using [tcpconnect]).John-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747 ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
