You can use any user/pw that'll connect to MySQL. I don't have a Linux
machine handy, but the MySQL configuration documentation is very good at
explaining user priveledges.

Subject: Linux connecting to MySQL


I am attempting to create a connection in the ODBC page of the CF
administrator to a MySQL database, which exists.

My CF server runs as "nobody".
My MySQL server runs as "mysql".

my database name is "db_test".

need to know the following:

- what user needs to be set up in mySQL
- is that user @% or @localhost
- what username do you put in the username field in CF administrator?

thanks a lot.
