You need to flush privileges after you add a new user.

FYI...  Paul DuBois' mySQL book covers this in great detail and should be
considered the Bible for mySQL

Check the manual for flushing priliges if you don't have available access to
this book...

Hello,

I am trying this security stuff out.  Trial and error is the only way to
go.

I have logged in to mysql as root and then selected to use mysql table.
This is how I would grant priviledges to different users.
I used the commands successfully and typed:
insert into user
(Host,User,Password,Select_Priv,Insert_Priv,Update_Priv,Delete_Priv)
values ('localhost','lurustest',password('goblue'),'Y','Y','Y','Y');
This was added into the table.
So I log off as root and try to log in as lurustest

mysql -u lurustest -p
When I typed in the password, I got the following error message
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'lurustest@localhost' (Using
password: YES)

I thought I gave lurustest access?  Also, everything was run while being
on localhost.  The IP address that I logged into.

Any comments?

Thanks.
