I don't wish to push the problem somewhere else, but i am going to have
to advise you that you go and seek assistance from the MySQL forums.
This isn't an OpenBD problem.
The reason I suspect Navcat is working for you is that its running on
the same host and it is not using TCP sockets to talk to MySQL but most
likely pipes. Hence no network security issues here.
Your network is the problem, and i think your lack of experience in and
around this area is also hindering you. For example, all your 'telnet'
tests you performed to 127.0.0.1/localhost where null'n'void because you
didn't specify the port.
You had:
[UESC-Marathon:~] jbmentze% telnet 127.0.0.1
You should have had:
[UESC-Marathon:~] jbmentze% telnet 127.0.0.1 3306
I wouldn't expect you to have telnet service running on your mac
So i have to have ask you to step back and seek MySQL help from those
guys that i am sure can get your setup sorted. We've generated nearly
40emails here for this network problem and I don't want to annoy the
others on this list who may think this has turned into a MySQL support
forum!
The problem is still the same problem we identify way back at the start
- MySQL + network.

Come back to us when you've got access all sorted. Good luck.
