I just got WP running on my own server. I am not trying to lock things down more. What permissions should the db user have to my WP db?

If you did want to lock things down…. a normal wordpress site will usually only require the database user to have SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE.
If you want to use the automatic update feature it will also require CREATE and ALTER.
Some plugins may require other permissions but most won’t.
