All,

I've been attempting to assign a password to a user with the following 
statement:

UPDATE mysql.user SET password=PASSWORD('foo') WHERE user = 'acc_name';

I get the typical:

Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1  Changed: 1  Warnings: 0

However, when the user attempts the login using the password they are 
unable (access is denied to acc_name with password yes). If they 
attempt to login without a password, they are successful - WTF!. 

There is only 1-entry in the user table for this user so I didn't 
specify a host.

Next, for the same user account, if I try to login from a remote 
machine (via ODBC) I am denied access (event with the blank password!). 
The user has the following host '%' (no other hosts present), yet I 
receive an error that reads: 

Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)

HELP before I lose my mind and start pretending I am a glass of orange 
juice.

Regards,
Adam
