i just created a new database (test) and want to grant admin's privileges
on test as same as internal.
how do i do this???
i tried (as root):
grant all on test.* to 'admin'@'localhost';
grant all on test.* to 'admin'@'10.0.0.%';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* TO 'admin'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED
BY 'passwordString';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* TO 'admin'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY
'passwordString';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
The first query grants all privileges to admin when accessing the
host locally. The second query allows you to connect from ANY host.
The third query flushes the old privileges data and ensures that the
updated mysql.users information is used. Be sure to replace
passwordString with your password.
If you only want access to be on the Class C private network
subnet for 10.0.0.x (RFC 1918) as well as localhost, then adjust query
#2 to:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* TO 'admin'@'10.0.0.%' IDENTIFIED BY
'passwordString';
and then FLUSH PRIVILEGES; again.
i understand all of these, but let me re-state my question:
assume user admin has a few privileges (which i don't know, but can find
out) on internal database.
let say that i create a new database and want to grant admin's privileges
on test so that admin's privileges on internal = admin's privileges on
test
instead of find out what are privileges of admin on internal (select,
update, insert,..) and then
grant select,update, insert,... on on test.* to 'admin'@'localhost'
identified by 'password';
is there any command that can set so that admin's privileges on internal =
admin's privileges on test???
what i'm trying to avoid is manually adjust admin's privileges on test if
admin's privileges on internal changed.
if it's not still clear, then stupid menever mind.

If I'm understanding correctly, you want user 'admin' to be able to access multiple databases, using one password and one permission set. If that's the case, then yes, it can be done but as far as I know, only by selecting ALL databases. Such as: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'admin'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'passwordString'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; Then, when updating privileges for 'admin', just include *.* instead of a particular database.table limit. Keep in mind, though, that 'admin' will then have access to EVERY database on the server. I'm not sure that there's a way to comma-delimit (or something of the type) a select few database.table configurations. A quick search of the web didn't show any different either. -- /Daniel P.
