Create User Group

Hi,

I'm a newbie to MySQL and I have a pretty simple question... but I can't seem to find it anywhere on google. Anyway, here's the question. Is it possible to create user groups in MySQL? For example I want to create the following groups:

Administrator -> FULL access and priviledges
Realtime Storage User -> create table and writing to table priviledges.
Data retrieval user -> can only read from tables.

I know I can create each user individually and have the above priviledges set accordingly. But I'm just wondering if there's an easier way to specify three types of users, then when I create a user, I'll just specify which group this user belongs to.

Thanks!

Mic

To my knowledge, this isn't possible, though it'd be a pretty nifty bit of functionality. You might check the docs of mysql 4.x and see if there's anything about it there.

I did look in the MySQL manual and can't seem to find anything about creating user groups. I was hoping someone can direct me to the exact place or maybe have some ideas to go about doing it.

Maybe it isn't possible after all....
