I had gotten some feedback on this, but I still do not have enough information on this to resolve it.
the initial thoughts & comments I got from people the believed it was a connectivity problem. this is on an internal network. the linux box has shared drives I use all day everyday with no problems, telnet between the 2, ftp, web applications. there is no firewall or restrictions between the 2 computers, and I can connect to mysql on the localhost (which is the linux box). I am using the myodbc driver. I am completely stuck on this, and I cannot figure out how to resolve this. I have mysql on a linux box (IP 192.168.0.1), and I've got a windows 2000 box that I am trying to connect to with with odbc. I am getting the following error message [MySQL AB][MyODBC] ERROR : Can't connect to MySQL server on 192.168.0.1 (10061) Jeff Bluemel Jeff Bluemel --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
