Don't think you can do that "through MySQL". MySQL is a database server.

Probably you need to use a scripting language that can use MySQL as a database? Like PHP?

Please explain exactly what you want to do and you'll get more assistance...

Hi Guys,
I have 7 different vpn servers from different location and I would like to create account with one click
How can I do that? When I need create or delete user account, I have to connect all servers and I have to edit config files.
Can I do something easy about that?
