sorry if it's a stupid question, but just to cover the basics, you
remembered to flush privileges after adding it right?

Hi,
I have just installed mySQL version 5 and want to enable root access
from remote machines. However, the configuration tool fails when
trying
to change the security settings with an error 2003. Apart from
this it
is working fine (alongside a version 4 server on the same
machine). How
do I manually enable root access from remote machines as adding "%"
into
the list of hosts for root does not seem to do anything in
Administrator?
Regards,
John Doolan
