[rt-users] Allowing remote access to RT mySQL
So this may seem rudimentary but I am not a solid SQL tech. My Boss would like to make remote ODBC connections to RT's DB. Is there a set of instructions I can review to set this up for him? Thanks in advance -Vance --- Vance Walsh Network and Systems Administrator Concord Academy - Concord, Mass.

Ruslan, Thanks for the response, I was more curious if there is anything specific to how RT connects to MySQL that would not allow for me to setup standard GRANT permissions to the DB I have tried the standard GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO vwalsh@10.2.8.17 IDENTIFIED by Password; and have not been able to connect remotely from this IP and username to the DB -Vance --- Vance Walsh Network and Systems Administrator Concord Academy - Concord, Mass.

You should definintely check the link Ruslan mentions, and do a fair bit of reading to get more comfortable with MySQL (not a bad idea in any event). Not sure if you were quoting yourself verbatim, but if so, that command has several issues with how you typed it. I'd bookmark the 5.* doc pages for your exact version, and look up every command you want to type for syntax as you work. The punctuation is not optional :).

Hi, Nothing RT specific. mysql by default may be configured without listening network. You may have firewall that blocks connections. Start from telnet or mysql client on anther machine.
