hi guys. pls I just developed a java GUI software
and I need to access a remote database. but as
we know by default databases won't allow that
except you tell it to grant access. but that's
where I'm stuck. pls has any one developed a
software that accesses a remote db? pls signify.
really appreciate

thank God you r a java doctor cos I sure do need some medication in java. how exactly do I grant the permission? can I do it from panel? also is there a syntax to do it on the mysql console? pls help. thanks bro

also pls note that the GUI would be used on any system world wide so I need it go allow all ips coming.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'user'@'ipadress'

You only need to allow one machine, which is the server side to connect to remote mysql, and manage your threads on server side.

wow. thanks so much. so the 'IPaddress' is my server address right? where the database resides?
