I'm trying to execute a statement which will allow access to a table by 
a user from *any* client on the Internet.  I enter something like this:

GRANT SELECT ON DB.TABLE TO serf@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'readonly';

Yet, I'm unable to access DB.TABLE unless I replace '%' with the 
hostname of the client from which I am executing the sql query.  The 
MySQL documentation seems to say that using '%' will allow access to a 
table from any host on the Internet, but my tests don't seem to bear 
that out.  Am I missing something here?  Thanks.
