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?
