Re: Is there an easy way to tell CakePHP to use another db setting instead of $default?

You can do that by setting the dbconfig in a specific model that needs
another db using the var $useDbConfig

See for more info http://book.cakephp.org/view/310/Configuration

Or here is an article about changing database configuration on the
fly:

Hope this helps!
