Hello, I can't make a remote connection to our MySQL server? I'm using org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver. But if I connect to my db server (localhost), it can connect successfully. I use the following format for connection and the IP address of the remote server for hostname. Connection conn =DriverManager.getConnection (dbURL, account, password); where dbURL = jdbc:mysql://[hostname][:port]/dbname This is what I noticed. If I connect to my local server using "localhost", it's fine. But if I use my IP address instead of "localhost", I can't connect anymore.
