hello all,
    I am kind of new to all the unix OS stuff.  Lately i have been doing alot of work 
in FreeBSD, and i have started playing with mysql.  I got it to install and 
everything, the only problem i am having, is i can't seem to connect from anywhere off 
the machine, i run the "grant privileges on........"  command and it says 0 rows 
effected.  i was wondering if i may be doing something wrong.  any help would be 
appreciated, thanx

Jason
