Martin,

What sort of error are you getting? Is it related to security or your 
client does not even see the server?

If it is related to security, refer to 
http://kb.synametrics.com/FrontController?operation=1&id=49

If it is related to Network, try the following.

* Open a console window (DOS prompt) on your client machine and type:
     telnet serverHostName 3306
* If you see a blank screen, that mean your client can connect to your 
server.
* If you see an error, that means it is a network problem and try to see 
why.

Regards,
Imran.
