I'm using the PurePerl driver, mysqlPP, but I can't connect.
I've been using this locally on my MySQL server box and this is my first attempt to
connect remotely.
I did add a user/host to the mysql.user table for the remote host I was connecting
from.
I also tried to turn on tracing, but the log is not being written out. ?????
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Greg
