user permissions in linux
Hi, I'm new to both MySQL and LINUX, however still managed to kind of get them up and running. I installed MySQL whilst I was logged in as ROOT. Now I can only run it when I log is as ROOT. How do change permissions of the other users so they can also run MySQL or create a new user which will have full access to MySQL (basically grants so a user can take advantage of MyODBC.

User issues in installation. New beginner
Hey people, I've just set-up mysql on a redhat version6.1 of linux. I am new to both. If i log into the machine as root I can run mysql. If I log into the machine as a normal user I can't run mysql. Is it a case of permissions in linux? I need to be able to run mysql through a telnet window on a win98 machine. I have managed to telnet between the two but only as a normal user not as root. Should this be the case? Should I be able to telnet as root. I eventually want MS Access to call the databases on MySQL via ODBC (MyODBC)what configurations will I need to do to the two machines for this to possible? Do I need SAMBA installed? if so how? and why exactly? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
