As root, although any user having administration access within MySQL 
should work.

I agree. I had to look up the MySQL docs as well, and I don't understand 
MySQL well enough to describe the steps in a 'systematic way'. In fact, 
for example, I can't get access to MySQL from my notebook (different 
subnet, but it should have access) and I don't know why.
