This was discussed....see


http://www.minivend.com/minivend/minivend-list/2000/msg00561.html and
follow up!

And the part of the email from Mike Heins (

I was incommunicado for about a week, but am back.

I guess I never think about it because I don't export userdb and until the
last 6 months have rarely used SQL. But it would be possible, obviously,
to do this, especially with st=db.

I think I have not recently paid attention to the AdminDatabase directive
which was originally intended to deal with this issue.

Probably the easiest solution to this will be code to implement:

        NoSearch userdb* 

I may default to making the database selected in the "UserDB default database"
secure, and probably will allow setting of [set mv_search_file]userdb[/set]
as a one-off allow for things like the password mailing page.

I will put some sort of solution in MiniVend 4, and probably issue
a patch for 3.
