mysql comes with 2 predefined databases, their names are
show databases; 1. mysql
2. test open mysql database
use mysql;
find the table named as 'user' , there mysql users and their access privileges are stored.
select Host, User, Password from user modify Host column as you wish to limit access to your database. also you'd better check other columns to understand how to grant priviliges to mysql users.
btw dont forget to flush privileges after you are done with the modification.
flush privileges;
