Hi All,
I'm trying to connect to MySql server from MySql Administrator on a network machine. I specify the Server host as IP of the machine where DB server is running and Port as 3306. Username as 'root' and the password I have tried with other usernames and specifying machine name instead of IP. It doesn't work in any case. But i always get this error: "Could not connect to the specififed instance. MySQL Error number 2003" and it says: "If you want to check network connection, please ping" When i click "ping" i get reply from the machine I'm trying to connect to I'm able to connect to localhost, i.e., if i have the DB server on the same machine. MySql server is running on XP machine. Is there any option that i have to enable to make network machine to log on to Mysql DB server?? I'll appreciate any help.
