Hey people,

I've just set-up mysql on a redhat version6.1 of linux.  I am new to both.
If i log into the machine as root I can run mysql.
If I log into the machine as a normal user I can't run mysql.
Is it a case of permissions in linux?

I need to be able to run mysql through a telnet window on a win98 machine.  
I have managed to telnet between the two but only as a normal user not as 
root. Should this be the case? Should I be able to telnet as root.

I eventually want MS Access to call the databases on MySQL via ODBC 
(MyODBC)what configurations will I need to do to the two machines for this 
to possible?  Do I need SAMBA installed? if so how? and why exactly?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Faizal.
