I changed the bind-address option in my PC's /etc/mysql/my.cnf file from "127.0.0.1" to "0.0.0.0" and restarted mysql. I then tried to run mythfrontend from my wife's PC in an ssh environment. I got a lot of errors that were copies of this: 2006-01-08 14:19:51.309 Unable to connect to database! 2006-01-08 14:19:51.309 Driver error was [1/1130]: QMYSQL3: Unable to connect Database error was: Host 'catherine.espersunited.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server catherine is my wife's computer, located at 192.168.1.4 My computer is camille, at 192.168.1.3 When I tried to telnet into my mysql server, I got the same message: catherine ~ # telnet camille 3306 Trying 192.168.1.3... Connected to camille. Escape character is '^]'. SHost 'catherine.espersunited.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL serverConnection closed by foreign host. How do I fix this? I had a similar problem a long time ago and as far as I can tell it was fixed by changing the mysql server's bind-address to 0.0.0.0. That didn't work this time. BTW, I'm using mysql version 4.1.14... -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
