Bingo!!
With the installation of the 5.0 (I assume) skip-networking was set by default
in /etc/mysql/my.cnf. That was it.
Thanks.

I assume you have already verified that the mysql server is actually running
on server A. Have you verified that server A is accepting tcp connections?
Try running
mysql -h mycompA -u mysql -p
from server A. If it lets you in, try
SELECT CURRENT_USER();
just to make sure it says @mycom
