With the following configuration of the user table +---------------------------+----------+ | host | user | +---------------------------+----------+ | % | robber | | 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 | phpuser | | 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 | root | | localhost | root | +---------------------------+----------+ and of the tables_priv +---------------------------+-------------+----------+-------------+ | host | db | user | table_name | +---------------------------+-------------+----------+-------------+ | 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 | esempio | phpuser | utenti | | localhost | esempio | phpuser | utenti | | port1 | mysql | phpadmin | db | | port1 | mysql | phpadmin | tables_priv | | port1 | mysql | phpadmin | user | +---------------------------+-------------+----------+-------------+
