On the Cobalt, is it possible to have 2 separate hosting accounts access one MYSQL database located on one of the accounts?

For example I have on the same server:

a.com
Which ha a MYSQL database.


Ive recently set up b.com on the same server and I want to use the data from a.com's mysql database. How will I go about with that?

as long as you know the db name, user account and password to that db, then you can share that db ... In fact, if somebody else on that server know the username and password to your db, that person too can access your db easily ..

how do you do that, the same way as you would access the db under a.com (using the same user name and password).
