[ale] MySql: How do I grant all priviledes to a remote user

[Jim Lynch]

Since you've already solved the problem, my advice is unnecessary, 
however I usually cheat and use phpmyadmin and the gui to do something 
like what I want then take the generated sql and edit it, if necessary. 
E. G. Some systems where I only have shell access, and need to create a 
new table, I'll create the table locally via phpmyadm gui  and copy and 
paste the resulting "create table" statement into the shell window.
