RE: Should I be able to connect mysql client on windows to linux server?

I have seen this before as well.  I found that it was the firewall running
on the Linux box that was preventing the MySQL client from getting through.
You might check this.

Subject: Should I be able to connect mysql client on windows to linux
server?



Hi - I am trying to connect MySQL Administrator 1.1.1 on my win2000 machine
to MySQL 4.1.10 running on Redhat Linux 4. I get 'error 2003' can't connect
to mysql server on '<ip address>'. The ping works, and mysql is running on
the linux server(I can run mysql administrator locally on the linux box just
fine). The port is 3306 and skip networking is off. The user table has % for
hostname, so I do not know why it would not work, but maybe one cannot use a
windows mysql client to a linux mysql server?

Thanks for any suggestions!
Jennifer
