I've read the sections on GRANT's and permissions, and done some googling, and still haven't found what I'm looking for.
I have a user that has USAGE and GRANT global privs and all privs and GRANT on database rubric. However, when they try to run this query: GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE ON rubric.* TO 'user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; They get the error ERROR 1044: Access denied for user 'user'@'host' to database 'mysql' They can log in just fine, so it is not a matter of host name. I found a post that seemed to allude to the fact that a user with GRANT could only create a new user via GRANT if there was not IDENTIFIED BY clause. (However, a user with write permissions to the mysql database could). I verified this to be the case when this query, GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE ON rubric.* TO 'user'@'localhost' run as the user in question, worked and created the user, albeit with no password. Is there a way for a user with GRANT privs to create a user *with* a password? j----- k----- -- Joshua J.
