this will create a new database on the server with the new user having all rights granted on that db.

CREATE USER 'uname'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED  BY 'pass';

GRANT  USAGE ON *.* TO 'uname'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED  BY 'pass' WITH  MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR 0  MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR  0  MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR  0  MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS  0 ;

CREATE  DATABASE  IF  NOT  EXISTS 'uname' ;

GRANT  ALL  PRIVILEGES  ON 'uname'.*  TO 'uname'@'localhost';

if there´s a problem when creating the database,  do not use the ‘ ‘ signs around the db name.

just to avoid phpmyadmin for this little task i didn´t like to look that up everytime.
