Hello Vangelis,

if DBSource, DBUsername and DBAuth (after expanding any % specials)
are the same, then the connection should be the same. By 'should' I mean
that Radiator calls DBI's connect() which hides the actual workings of
the underlying layers.

If you do for example, 'sudo netstat -t -p -n' you can check the TCP
connections and the processes that use them.

Thanks,
Heikki
