hi michael, the data between two databases can be sniffed if these servers are on the same network segment. but usually all databases including Mysql supports SSL. It would encrypt any communication to and fro from the server(s). regs Harshul nayak -----Original Message----- From: Michael Silk [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, March 15, 2004 4:34 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: MS SQL Inter-database query question Hello ... Just a quick question: When a query is performed from one database to another database on the same server, does the information pass over a socket ? or some other system ? If it is a socket, is it sent such that sniffing of the information is possible (i.e. sniffer on a computer in the same network can view data transfer) ?
