Hi,
            I must admit I know more of python than SQL. When you say not
with localhost as hostname. You are saying that given a computer A which is
acting as a server, has a user name created as root and passwd "", When
another computer B on the same network, domain (without a firewall) tries to
connect to Computer A using the command

conn = MySQLdb.connect(host = "localhost",port = 3306, user = "root",passwd
= "",db = "dailies",cursorclass=MySQLdb.cursors.DictCursor)

How else will it communicate to access the records on computer A from B.

BRgds,

kNish
