I assume that you know the the server's ip and then try: from DOS: mysql -h ipaddressofserver -u user1 -ppassword1
--type this as is with your server's ip
Also you need to be running 4.1.1 client on your laptop.

With several others, I too have this problem.
MySQL 4.1.1 installed without a problem. The sqlAdmin is running. I can run the control center and/or mysql to do sql things.
This, though, is all from the server (a PC running Win ME). I want to connect from my laptop.
What do I have to do? Executing telnet to the PC won't work (probably
need the a telnet server).
When I move to the shared directory on the PC and try to execute mysql, I get the error.
Thanks for an assistance.
