I have got the same confg and works perfect. WinNT & Linux MySQL. Why dont U directly edit the user table of mysql DB. Let Host be '%' and give some username & password. mysql> insert into mysql.user values('%','username',password('passwd'),'Y','Y',....'Y'); For test purpose let all priv fields be 'Y'. Then try again it shud work. Cheers! Thiru On Thu, 15 Feb 2001 22:28:31 -0700 "Mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: -> Hi All -> -> Where are some good tutorial sites for beginners in the MySQL World.
