Answer on Setting up a Database

Hi, In a separate RAC post I plan to hire someone to create a web based program for us and I know one of the first things they'll need is access to our main server to create a sql database. My question is, how can we securely give them access to our server to create the sql database? In the past our old host would create the database for us and email me the database user/pass/hostname. I would then give that, along with FTP access to the server to the RAC doing the project but now we're using Ensim Pro and this is something we now have to do ourselves. Is there a way to limit their access to our main server either by the Ensim Control Panel JUST to create the database or using another means? I think I heard of another way to do this outside of the Control Panel but not having to rely on the host. Is that true and correct? If anyone's got a secure answer to this, I'd appreciate the help. Thank you. ## Deliverables 1) Provide the best possible solution to the security question, as asked. 2) If another option is available other than giving access to the Ensim control panel for the main server, please specify what the other option is. ## Platform n/a
