Hello.
I guess your MySQL client library is fresh enough to support authentication protocol of 4.1.x versions. Otherwise you should read: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Old_client.html If you have 4.1.x client library on your windows machine, probably you should add ability to connect to MySQL server from windows host. GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'windows_host' IDENTIFIED BY 'goodsecret'; See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/GRANT.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Access_denied.html Danesh Daroui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [-- text/plain, encoding 7bit, charset: ISO-8859-1, 29 lines --] > > Hi all, > > I have am in trouble with connecting remotely to my MySQL Server Linux > machine.
