MYSQL_SETPERMISSI(1) MariaDB Database System MYSQL_SETPERMISSI(1)
NAME
mysql_setpermission - interactively set permissions in grant tables
SYNOPSIS
mysql_setpermission [options]
DESCRIPTION
mysql_setpermission is a Perl script that was originally written and
contributed by Luuk de Boer. It interactively sets permissions in the
MariaDB grant tables. mysql_setpermission is written in Perl and
requires that the DBI and DBD::mysql Perl modules be installed.
Invoke mysql_setpermission like this:
shell> mysql_setpermission [options]
options should be either --help to display the help message, or options
that indicate how to connect to the MariaDB server. The account used
when you connect determines which permissions you have when attempting
to modify existing permissions in the grant tables.
mysql_setpermission also reads options from the [client] and [perl]
groups in the .my.cnf file in your home directory, if the file exists.
mysql_setpermission supports the following options:
o --help
Display a help message and exit.
o --host=host_name
Connect to the MariaDB server on the given host.
o --password=password
The password to use when connecting to the server. Note that the
password value is not optional for this option, unlike for other
MariaDB programs.
Specifying a password on the command line should be considered
insecure. You can use an option file to avoid giving the password
on the command line.
o --port=port_num
The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.
o --socket=path
For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use.
o --user=user_name
The MariaDB user name to use when connecting to the server.
