Hi List,

Quoting Michael from that message:

Now, I really like that "lazy way" solution. Can someone tell me what is 
the status?

Because, it seems to me that when I use the demo of BX, logging in as a 
reseller, I get to see all the databases, not just the once belonging to 
the reseller's vsites.

Thanks
