You can (and should) only give the users access to their own database
( in the db table of mysql base). They will be able to see the
existance of other databases, but will not be able to see the tables or
their entries. There is however also a patch (check out the forum on
phpmyadmin's webpage) where you can restrict the users to only see
their "own" database, but it's not in the official distribution.
