Go easy on the guy (or lady), Jon; s/he's new 
.
If your client has the ability to create multiple databases, s/he can.
But what do you mean by getting Mambo and SMF to work together? Will that require custom coding? Just what is it you want them to do together?
Do you mean database user (as in SMF user), or website user (as in DA user)?

hi,
It's a guy
I should have mentioned that I am a newbie!! I tried going through phpmyadmin, but I cant find any option that lets me add users to the database.
jlasman,
There is a component that intergrates SMF + Mambo, check out simplemachines.org for more info.
No need for custom coding(if thats the case I am doomed!!)

When logged into phpmyadmin as da_admin or root, click on the "Privileges" link in the main right frame.
You should be presented with a list of all the users that phpMyAdmin has access to. Edit the user you want to give access to the additional databases for.
On that page you should find a section called something like Database-specific privileges
There you can select the database you want the user to have control over from the drop-down menu as well as add, edit, or delete existing privileges.

. Is there any other way?? 
All might not be lost. You could contact yoru hosting provider and explain to them what you need, they should be able to do this pretty easily. Or, you can use your DirectAdmin login details which should have access to all of your databases (it's a a master account), although it is less secure since it does have access to all of them.
