create either a C:\my.cnf OR
\my.ini file with the following
settings (example shows an install in
That is one of the tables in MySQL database (for privileges and other server
stuffs).
It is located in
MySQL DATA --->mysql --->
MySQL data is the directory containing all data.
On windows systems that is normally c:\mysql\data
So the table file should be in c:\mysql\data\mysql

On UNIX you need to run a creat datbase using scripts/mysql_install_db
