NAME

6       mariadb-setpermission - interactively set permissions in grant tables
7       (mysql_setpermission is now a symlink to mariadb-setpermission)
8

SYNOPSIS

10       mysql_setpermission [options]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       mysql_setpermission is a Perl script that was originally written and
14       contributed by Luuk de Boer. It interactively sets permissions in the
15       MariaDB grant tables.  mysql_setpermission is written in Perl and
16       requires that the DBI and DBD::MariaDB Perl modules be installed.
17
18       Invoke mysql_setpermission like this:
19
20           shell> mysql_setpermission [options]
21
22       options should be either --help to display the help message, or options
23       that indicate how to connect to the MariaDB server. The account used
24       when you connect determines which permissions you have when attempting
25       to modify existing permissions in the grant tables.
26
27       mysql_setpermission also reads options from the [client] and [perl]
28       groups in the .my.cnf file in your home directory, if the file exists.
29
30       mysql_setpermission supports the following options:
31
32       •   --help
33
34           Display a help message and exit.
35
36       •   --host=host_name
37
38           Connect to the MariaDB server on the given host.
39
40       •   --password=password
41
42           The password to use when connecting to the server. Note that the
43           password value is not optional for this option, unlike for other
44           MariaDB programs.
45
46           Specifying a password on the command line should be considered
47           insecure. You can use an option file to avoid giving the password
48           on the command line.
49
50       •   --port=port_num
51
52           The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.
53
54       •   --socket=path
55
56           For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use.
57
58       •   --user=user_name
59
60           The MariaDB user name to use when connecting to the server.
