[BlueOnyx:12098] Re: External access to MYSQL

[Richard Morgan]

Hi Mark

Do you have a MySQL user set up with either '%' as the host or the host/IP specified.  In this scenario you need a username, hostname of the requesting server and the password.

It doesn't just do it, but it's also not blocked by anything (IIRC).

It might be worth trying some kind of MySQL tool from your desktop - I use HeidiSQL, although the error messages are far from verbose.

  Hello,

  I need to permit access from another host to the MYSQL database on my BO box. I get a reject when I try to connect to port 3306.What needs to be done to allow this?

  Thanks
