Re: Problems with mysql

Basically you are correct but it took me some time to figure
out what was happening in the mysql.user table. One record
had "name@localhost" entirely in the name field. I think they
confused the issue with the odd syntax of the ''@'' rather than
referring to the User and Host fields in a normal manner.

Well, you are dealing with a database and what is a normal manner? An
username could also contain an "@" sign which is pretty uncommon but not
impossible.

So i guess having a solution separating username and host is well thought.
