Hello
Does anyone know why a user would show up in a select from user
query but
not in a show grants command. What I am trying to say is I tried
SHOW
GRANTS FOR 'user1'@'%' and received that there is no such grant
defined for
'user1'... But when I run SELECT * FROM user WHERE User = 'user1' I
do get
results. Could the user have been added using an insert causing the
SHOW
GRANTS to fail?
Any Ideas
Todd
Todd,
Users are identified by more than just their login name. Users are a
combination of login AND a host specifier. When you do
SELECT * from user where user = 'user1';
a) how many entries are there
b) what is in the host column for those entries.
For example if the host column shows fizzle.shizzle.com then you have
to use
SHOW GRANTS FOR 'user1'@'fizzle.shizzle.com';
HTH!
