Hi! You don't need any special drivers. Just the MySQL command-line client will do the job. It can be downloaded from www.mysql.com along with the server package. > How do I set permissions on the mysql server to let be accessed by the > remote windows machine. See http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/GRANT.html for details on how to set up new users and permissions. You'll need something like GRANT all ON *.* TO yourusername IDENTIFIED BY 'yourpassword'; This will give your users a broad set of permissions, please have a look at the docs if you want to restrict those.
