Hi,

I have successfully installed and configured MySQL on one of my PCs is connected on a LAN. My intention is to create new user accounts from the other PCs on the same LAN so that they can access the database(s). I will be using MS Access as front end.

What I would like to know is, after I have created the users and i have granted them privileges to the database, am i supposed to install anything (ODBC, MySQL) on their PCs?

Yes, you do need to install MySQL ODBC driver on their PCs. That's the only thing they need besides Access to be able to connect.
