Hi
First,
shell> useradd mysql
Changing UserName and Group name for data directory
shell> chown -R mysql:mysql data
Create Initial database
shell> scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql
Start the Server
Then to User:
First, use the mysql program to connect to the server as the MySQL root user:
shell> mysql --user=root mysql
1. After connecting to the server as root, you can add new accounts. The
following statements use
GRANT to set up four new accounts:
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'monty'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY
'some_pass' WITH GRANT OPTION;
[OR]
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'monty'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY
'some_pass' WITH GRANT OPTION;
2. mysql> INSERT INTO user (Host,User,Password)
VALUES('localhost','UN','PWD');
Then to Change Password:
1. Passwords may be assigned from the command line by using the mysqladmin
command:
shell> mysqladmin -u user_name -h host_name password "newpwd"
2. Another way to assign a password to an account is to issue a SET PASSWORD
statement:
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR 'jeffrey'@'%' = PASSWORD('biscuit');
3. mysql> SET PASSWORD = PASSWORD('biscuit');
To Drop user:
1. mysql> DELETE FROM user WHERE User='' and HOST=''
Thanks
