Hmmm, I dunno. Perhaps the term: mysql -h 'server' -u root Should be changed to: mysql -h your_hostname -u root As "your_hostname" is the actual FQDN of your server.

Hi, I have instaled mysql 4.0.17 on a debian server, but i have a big problem. I can only connect to mysql at the server and only with -h localhost. If I try this: mysql -h server -u root from anywhere i receice always the same response: ERROR 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'server' (111) the only way I can connect to the server is typing mysql -h localhost -u root at the server. Can anyone please help? I already search at google and can fine anything.
