I recently installed Red Hat 7.3 on a box, and have been having difficulty connecting to my MySQL server. I can connect locally. That is, on the same machine as the server. However, if I try and connect from a remote machine with the following command:
mysql -h <IP_ADDRESS> -p <DATABASE> I get the following error message: ERROR 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query I've poked around on the net and in the documentation, but I can't find anything that explains this. Aside from creating a database and using the GRANT ALL command on it to setup privileges, I haven't mucked with the configuration at all. I've tried reinstalling the RPMs for MySQL and still no luck. Any idea what could be causing this? How can I fix it? Thanks!!! Steve Nakhla [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Y!
