Hi,
I'm trying to connect to the MySQL server on the RedHat AS 4 from a remote
Solaris SPARC box. When I run the command:
mysql -h HOSTNAME
I got the error as
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'HOSTNAME' (145)
Could anyone please explain what the mean of the error message

connect to it from any other machine as your firewall may permit local
