I'd like to have two different accounts refer to the same set of php scripts. Is this possible? If so, is it as simple as giving the complete URL of the scripts, or do I need to do more?

Is there a way that's safer (or less safe) to let the second account access these scripts? Or do I have to choose between vulnerable and complex?

More details:

I run two websites and I'd like them both to use the same installation of PmWiki (www.pmwiki.org). Having only one installation will make upgrades easier. Data would be on the individual accounts.

According to the PmWiki list, " The key thing to getting a WikiFarm to work is that each account needs to be able to locate the PmWiki source files on disk somehow. If it can do that, great, if not, then each account will need its own copy."

Hi,

Due to secuirty reasons, you won't be able to reference local paths between the accounts.

ie: You installed the php scripts on www.a-site.com

On www.b-site.com, you want to reference a-site.com via local path /home/a-site/htdocs/php-scripts
