I would like to connect to MySQL database on a remote server using
either the command prompt or MySQLFront.
I have the IP address, username, password but I can't connect.
MySQLfront just hangs when I enter all the information
If I type the following at the command prompt, in this example I'm using
username for the user name, and 66.66.66.66 for the IP address
(although I use real values)
mysql -h 66.66.66.66 -u username -p
it asks for my password then goes off and thinks for a while before
coming back with:
ERROR 2003 - can't connect to MySQL server on 'ip address' (port)
any ideas?
