You should specify host in the privilege tables to allow user to
connect from that host. As Rodney Broom advice you, look at the
manual. There is enough info about access verification in the section
4.2 General Security Issues and the MySQL Access Privilege System:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/P/r/Privilege_system.html
If you specify host name and you can't connect to the MySQl server
from remote host, try to remove 'skip-networking' entry from my.cnf file ...
