Hi Walt Thanks for the quick reply. Answer to both questions is yes. As a matter of interest, What I usually do is to create a "myodbc" db with a "myodbc" user and password "myodbc" I create this db and user with the mysql_setpermission util, and I use "%" for the host name. YET, when I try to connect from the localhost, it denies permission, only accepts connections from remote location ( not ODBC though, I used a php script on another host to test connection)
Any ideas?
