I read that flushing privileges is only neccessary if you use insert instead of grant:

"The reason for using FLUSH PRIVILEGES when you create accounts with INSERT is to tell the server to re-read the grant tables. Otherwise, the changes will go unnoticed until you restart the server. With GRANT, FLUSH PRIVILEGES is unnecessary."

You can specify the hostname or IP address that is allowed access in place of localhost in this command. So, if you want to be able to connect from a host named 'workstation' (10.100.15.2), use one of these:

grant all on accounts.* to jsmith@workstation identified by 'Secret15';
grant all on accounts.* to jsmith@10.100.15.2 identified by 'Secret15';

A dubious alternative, one with serious security consequences (you've been warned) is to allow access to jsmith from anywhere:

grant all on accounts.* to jsmith@% identified by 'Secret15';

In this context, the % symbol is a wildcard permitting access from any host. An important note - from my experience, it is necessary to create the localhost access control in addition to a specific host or global access control. If you do not, connections from localhost may not function properly.

Don't forget to "flush privileges" afterwards.
