OMIT the word PASSWORD.
Thanks for replying. Query is executing now but does not seem to effect any changes in the database....0 rows affected!
It's counter-intuitive, but that's just what GRANT says when it succeeds. It either works or gives an error.
How do I diagnose the problem?
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dns.* TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] IDENTIFIED BY "dns"; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.78 sec)
There's no problem. You could verify that your GRANT worked with a couple SELECTS:
SELECT user, host, password FROM mysql.user WHERE user='dns';
SELECT user, host, db FROM mysql.db WHERE user='dns';
The first should verify that the dns user exists in the user table, the second should verify that the dns user has rights to the dns table.
With regards and thanks. Sanjay.
