I have installed MySQL 3.23.26 on a Win 2K server. Set up a user: - name: Remote - host: % and "localhost" - password: password The 2 user entries are confirmed when I query the user table. The problem is: When trying to connect to the database from another PC, if I leave the password blank when prompted, then I connect ok. However, when I enter the valid password, it says: access denied for 'Remote@localhost' (using password: YES). This means that my server is totally unsecure, as someone can try to guess a user name and use blank as password. Can someone offer help in fixing this behaviour?
