I was reading about adding/managing users.
I understand hat the user table holds user information.
the example I will give is taken from the oreilly book.
insert into user (host, user, password, select_priv, insert_priv,
update_priv, delete_priv)
values ('%', 'bob', password('mypass'), 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y')
;
questions
1.) is the % a wildcard, and if so does this mean the user bob can connect
from any host ?
2.) the password function encrypts the password. If the password function is
missed out before the ('mypass') bit will it enter the password un-encrypted
? or will it just not work ?
thanks,
Matt.
