I am trying to connect to my MySQL 4.x server from a new machine.  I am
getting this error:

Got error: 1045: Access denied for user 'user'@'192.168.2.56' (using
password: YES) when trying to connect

BUT I have a user setup in mysql with allowed access from
'%.willcomminc.com'.  The machine I'm trying to connect from is named
dbdev.willcomminc.com.  I did a reverse lookup from the database server
and the IP 192.168.2.56 does indeed lookup to dbdev.willcomminc.com.

Why is MySQL ignoring the hostname and using the IP?

I did google for this first but didn't come up with anything.
