Hi Andreas, On the local host using mysql database. Execute the following command at mysql prompt:
Mysql>grant all privileges on [database_name].* to 'user'@'remote_host' identified by 'password' Please read more about this at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/grant.html or whatever version of MySQL you have.

I can access it locally via mysql command, I have also a ODBC driver installed and the test says it works ok. When I try to connect from a remote host via JDBC I get the error message that this host is not allowed to access the db. How can I enable a external host to access this DB ? It is possible to configure this from command line ? ( winmysqladmin is not working properly on this machine ) Thanks Andreas -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
