Hi Jim,

Please CC the mysql list (address above) on questions like this so that the
question/answer is archived and the rest of the world can gain from your
problem and the potential solutions.

Check out the following URL:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/U/s/User_Account_Management.html
It contains specific examples on creating users etc. (4.3.5 Adding new users
to MySQL)

If you still have questions dont hesitate to ask.
