Was your server started with '--skip-networking'? Does it listen on some port other than 3306? You can see if mysql is listening using standard tools like 'lsof' and 'netstat'. If you're on Debian Linux (or a Debian-based distribution), look and see if /etc/mysql/my.cnf has '--skip-networking' in it, and comment it out (being aware of what issues this might cause security-wise). -Mark - -- For technical support contracts, visit https://order.mysql.com/?ref=mmma __ ___ ___ ____ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ / Mark Matthews <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ MySQL AB, SW Dev.
