Subject: Re: SOT: BD 6.1 and mySQL
OK, but how do I do that. I'm sorry if I sound dumb, but I've had to
mess with command line utilities 3 times since windows was release so I
am more than a little rusty (it took me 4.5 hours to get mySQL online).
As I said before, I am able to connect to the db server from my machine
using mySQL-Front (graphic db admin tool), so I must have allowed the
remote access when I did my original install.
