Allow other hosts in the LAN to access the local MySQL database

MySQL root account, I usually use the connection is localhost or 127.0.0.1, the company's test server mysql is also localhost so I want to access inaccessible, test paused.

Here's how to fix it:

1, modify the table, log in to the MySQL database, switch to the MySQL database, use the SQL statement to view the "select Host,user from User;"
Navicate Right-click Command column Interface input command

Mysql-u root-pvmwaremysql>use MySQL;
Mysql>update User Set host = '% ' where user = ' root ';
Mysql>select host, user from user;
Mysql>flush privileges;

Note: The last sentence is important in order for the changes to take effect. If you do not write, you still cannot connect remotely.
Review the following after execution:

Summarize:

[Email protected]% means you can log in to MySQL from any IP with root;

[email protected] means that users can only log on to MySQL from native (localhost or 127.0.0.1)

2, authorized user, you want root to connect to MySQL server from any host with password

GRANT all privileges on * * to ' root ' @ '% ' identified by ' admin123 ' with GRANT OPTION;
Flush privileges;

"Admin123" is the password.
