How to Change ACC Database Access

Shared

Dedicated

Database access dictates who can access the database server. There are two access options:

• Local Only will only accept connections from a server at Pair Networks. This should not affect the performance of any Pair Network web pages that rely on the database. Note that this does not necessarily refer to your local machine, only Pair Networks server connections.
• Local/Remote will accept connections from anywhere, as long as the connection supplies the proper login credentials.
