Hi ..
When you use the grant command the user if not existing in the user table then
the user is added in the table along with the privileges mentioned..The user
need not be a unix user..by this you are adding a user to access the mysql DB..
the link below explains the same in detail

Hi,
1. Is authentication check based on user table in mysql database.
2. If there is a unix user, then only giving password through grant
command will suffice ..How the entry of that user got created in the
user table.
regards
Syamala
