Hi Wybo,

My Synology station is on 192.168.178.27,
the database listens to port 3306,
on my FritzBox I forwarded port 3306 to 192.168.178.27,
I /can/ connect to the database on http://192.168.178.27/phpMyAdmin/
But when I try:

mysql --host=192.168.178.27 --password=***** --user=wybo

I get:

ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'wybo'@'wybo.fritz.box'
(using password: YES)

What am I doing wrong?

Access is granted only if three parts are correct:
1) the login you are using (wybo)
2) the password for the login
3) the host you are connecting from (wybo.fritz.box) is allows to use that account.

It's #3 that most people forget about.  Run this query

    SELECT host FROM mysql.user WHERE user='wybo';

If you see a pattern in the results that would match your host's name, then you need to compare your password hashes. If you don't know if you have a matching host pattern, post the list of host patterns you got from the query to the list. We can tell you.
