Kevin, It sounds like you don't have your MySQL access setup correctly. I am also a newbie to MySQL. I recently experienced the same problem with MyCC, which is similar software to SQLyog. I have both, MyCC and SQLyog, installed and currently comparing and contrasting to see which one I like to use. I used Webmin (a graphical user tool which allows me to configured just about anything in Linux) to configured my MySQL access. You basicall need to set the user's permission to access MySQL from another host or all hosts (the MySQL is set to localhost only). You may need to specify the port 3306 in the /etc/my.cnf file as well. This did it for me.
