Stopping anyone from creating a database.

[Mhtml]

How can I stop people from creating a database on my MySQL server?

eg if you used PhpMyAdmin you can access my server on my computer by changing the host name variable to my IP address.

How can I stop that from happening so that only I can create databases.

Your host needs to set mysql up so only he can create databases. Only way I think you can use is using htaccess to password protect the phpmyadmin directory.

lol well my host has it fixed but he doesn't know how lol. It all works fine.

You weren't exactly getting what I was saying anyway. If you had (and you probably do) have phpmyadmin on your box all you have to do is change the config file to say that the host is my IP address and bingo you can create and delete as you please.

lol although it would prove pointless as I don't even know what I'm doing with mysql yet.

:D

Thanks anyway!
