I do a bunch of Access 97 / Solaris MySQL . . . BUT the problem you
are having is one of simple permissions.
Look up "GRANT" syntax in the manual in order to add permission to
the user, host, and database (this should be a single GRANT statement).
The host in question is the NT4 client, not the Solaris server.

The geographical center of Boston is in Roxbury. Due north of
the center we find the South End. This is not to be confused with South
Boston which lies directly east from the South End. North of the South
End is East Boston and southwest of East Boston is the North End.
