About a year ago, I set up mySQL on a computer running linux (probably RH7.1). At the time I thought that I would investigate how I could use this server in my business, but then I had more pressing issues and so neglected the subject. Now that I have some spare times and correct tools (Delphi 7), I want to renew my acquaintance with mySQL.
I am trying to access the server from two computers running Win98. Both of them can connect to the linux machine via telnet and run programs such as the command line 'mysql', but only one of them allows me to connect via windows programs (I am using a program imaginatively called 'mysql_test.exe'). Of course, the machine which doesn't connect is the machine on which I am doing the program development. As far as I can figure out, there is some table (either in mySQL or in linux) which allows '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to connect, but does not allow '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to connect. What I am asking you, dear readers, is to help me find where I can add a definition to allow the second machine (and eventually others) to connect. I seem to be using version 3.22 TIA, No'am -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
