I have the exact same problem. Nothing has changed other than I upgraded from RH7.3 to RH8.0. I've tried at least five (5) different mySQL windows clients and all refuse to connect. However I can use phpMyAdmin locally (via web) and also all my web based database pages work fine too. I've tried adding some entries to the mysql/hosts table and still nothing. It's very confusing and frustrating indeed. Anyone know how to get this working again? And for what it's worth. I have no firewall on the linux box (removed all that crap), and both my winxp and linux boxes are sitting on an internal LAN 192.168.0.%
