I don't know if Mark is on the list, but I might have some suggestions
nevertheless.

Mysql listens by default on port 3306 (if you specified a different port
you'd probably know it). Do you have this port open on you computer (that
runs mysqld) and on your router (in case you have one)?

As beautifully explained in the manual in most cases permissions are granted
for 'localhost ' (which will use the socket) and for any other machine "%"
or specific IP, host name , domain etc. Did you grant the user the correct
privileges to connect from the host the client is running on?
