Hi I have a problem networking with mysql... My guest XP is configured as INTERFACE with static IP, the network is working, I can access the Linux host and the linux can access the XP via windows share / samba. The internet is working fine too, but...
When I try to connect to MySQL from Linux(host) to Windows(guest) it simply does not establish the connection... it is not due user access nor the host since I allowed connections from everywhere i.e. 'user'@'%' The mysql client at host simply does not reach the port at guest, it aborts after a while because "Connection timeout" What can I do? is it some kind of firewall? in the past I was able to do the same with VBOX+XP... currently it is a new installation with latest VBOX, but the configuration is the same, INTERFACE MODE + static IP Why can I access samba in both ways linux<->win and even ping in both ways, but can't connect to mysql? if it was a user problem it should reject the connection with invalid user/password, but does not connect and fails because timeout... Thanks for your help
