Did you do this?


Finally, if you just want to restrict by IP subnet (in this example, 
the 192.168.1. network):

$ mysql -u root mythconverg
mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"192.168.1.%" identified 
by "mythtv";
mysql> flush privileges;

See http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html
