Duh, ignore this message; I had my head misthreaded when I screwed it

Subject: Re: only 1 entry per user in user table?
What I want is there to just be 1 password entry for each user,
ignoring the host. As it is now the password is tied to both the user
and host. I would also like to be able to globally specify the hosts
that can connect to the server, ignoring the user, password, and
databases.

If you mean use % for the host in the user table, that has the
negative consequence that they can connect to the mysql server from
any machine on the internet; e.g. they can do
mysql -p -u dentry -h hishos
o the server. If they were to somehow know the user name
(for example, a disgruntled former employee) they could use this to do
a brute-force password search.

Did you try using % for the host instead?

I'm trying to set it up so that I have only 1 entry per user in my
mysql user table. My users will have the same privileges regardless
of what host they come in from. There's only 1 database they'll be
working with. There are 2 users, user "dentry" can add and edit
information in the database n
