User/database permissions

2002-01-11 Thread Intercession Tech Support

This is going to be a very basic question, so please excuse me.

I have a MySQL server running, but when I added users I inadvertently
gave them all permissions to everything. They can all access every one
else's databases and make what ever changes they want and even delete.
How do I lock it down where they only have rights to their own?

I don't even know how to view what users are there, much less change
their rights.

I've been looking in the documentation online, but it seems to assume
that I know more than I do.

Thank you in advance.

You need to take a look at the database called mysql.
In it you have:

culumns_priv
db
func
host
tables_priv
user

as tables. 
Use the GRANT command to set the USERS, or you can also do an insert
statement like so:

insert into mysql.tables_priv VALUES
('10.129.29.%','ai','httpd','pop_materials','gevery2@localhost','','Select,I
nsert,Update,Delete','')

and that will give the user httpd the Select,Insert,Update,Delete priveleges
on that particular table.

DB's is a bit different, but look at your output from 
USE mysql;
DESC db;

commands.
