      Please note the weird qualifying string after the user name.

      That's your machine name.

      From your root account, either add a user for that user with that as the 'New Host' or add a user with '%' in the 'New Host' field. (Or change your existing record to '%' in 'New Host.')

      I'm not sure if it's true anymore but I used to (MySQL v3.x) have to add each user in twice. Once with localhost and once with %.

      hi,

      “root account”? how do I get there?

      from any of the users, i cannot access “edit user” or “add user”.

      /pt

      If you run this server then you should have the root account and password info. Check the mysql docs for more info.

      If this server is run by your ISP then you most likely won't be able to get to teh root account but you can ask them to perform the tasks.

      Thanks. Basically what I'm findins is that I cannot manage the users from fron-end programs. I have to do it from the hosting control panel.

      thanks.
