connection to MySQL server

[toxix]

Can you connect to a mysql server with the same user more than one time at the same time and all sessions to be different? I want to write a C program who creates several child procesess and in each child there will be a connection to a mysql server and want to now if I have to connect from each child using a different user or I can use one user for all and the sessions to be different.

I never used C with mySQL, but i don't think your setup is differnt from the webserver - mySQL-server connection.
You there also use the same useraccount for each parsed page that needs a connection. (which can result in hundreds of simultanious connections with the same user)
