A couple of other things to try: * Can you use the mysql command-line client from inside the VM to connect to the MySQL instance on the host? * If you run a packet sniffer (like Wireshark) in the VM, do you see anything interesting happen when you try to connect using Mono? -- Chris Howie http://www.chrishowie.com http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Crazycomputers _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
