Hi all, Mysql server knows the OS server as localhost. the hostname you see in status is the OS server from which you connect (the client one), since it's defined in the grant.

Brian, Would it be feasible for you to work around this problem by: 1. Executing from UNIX prompt of your first server - "ssh second_server" 2. Executing "mysql -u user -p database" 3.
