I suspect that you need to add an entry at the MySQL host for the machine that you are connecting from. This can be done with a GRANT statement: - Format: grant all privileges on databaseName.tableName to 'userName'@'hostName' identified by 'somePassword'; - Example: grant all privileges on myDB.* to 'clyde'@'coolPlace.org' identified by 'secretPass'; Then you'll need to reload the access privileges. It can be done at the command line like this: % mysqladmin -u rootUserName reload Remember, you may need to add the -p switch and suply a password for this command.
