I have mysql running on a linux box at my house. I want to connect to
that box from another machine on my home network but get access
errors. When connecting, I use the machines internal ip and the root
name and password of the linux box but I get access denied errors.
How can I connect?
-DB] connection to mysql db
make sure that:
- your firewall is open on the port you're using, on both machines.
- your user is set up to allow connections from other machines
I wouldn't use root, regardless of it being at home or anywhere else. Why don't
you set up a new user, allow it to be used from anywhere, and give it
