Grant_priv for a normal user means that this user may delegate all rights that he possesses himself. He may never grant rights that he himself does not have (like "server shutdown priv" etc) as this would be against the intention of the admin and thus a security bug. To MySQL behaves correctly at least.
You might be successfull if you modify your statement to explicitly say "GRANT read,write TO ..." but although I try not to change the debian-sys-maint user (and IMHO did not during the last months) it's not encouraged to use him and Sean's proposal of using the dbconfig-common would be much better. bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
