I have 2 AWS instances (CentOS 6.5 64bit AMI) (a) Apache, PHP, mysql client package (IP = A, alias name aws-appsrv) (b) mysql-server (IP = B alias name aws-dbsrv).
I have configured mysql server on B to accept connections on 3306 from A. I have also configured mysql server on B to accept connections for 'root' user from A both with IP number (A) and alias name (aws-appsrv). On mysql server (B) mysql> select user,host,grant_priv from user; +------+------------+------------+ | user | host | grant_priv | +------+------------+------------+ | root | localhost | Y | | root | aws-appsrv | Y | | root | 127.0.0.1 | Y | | root | 10.0.0.244 | Y | +------+------------+------------+ On aws-appsrv (A), when I connect to mysql server on B as 'root' user, I get the following error. # mysql -u root -h aws-dbsrv -D mysql -p Enter password: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'aws-appsrv' (using password: YES) I have searched for a solution but have not come across one that meets my use case scenario. What am I missing? -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
