RE: Can't connect URGENT!
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.

RE: Can't connect URGENT!
Hi You can only connect as root from localhost for security I think. If you want to connect from elsewhere create a new user and use that - look for GRANT on www.mysql.com Peter -Original Message- From: Duke, Brian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 February 2004 01:50 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Can't connect URGENT!
