MySQL on Linux connect to the server using the socket by default. i.e. a connection issued with "mysql -hlocalhost" will never touch network. To connect using network you need to specify a network address like: mysql -h127.0.0.1 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ On windows the socket doesn't exist so it use networking ... and work.
