Hi all,

This is just for the record, in case anyone else looks up the problem/hurdle
I got over.

I got my win95 servlets to access the mySQL db via the following method:

step 1) add a line to the .profile to ensure the mm.mysql drivers are
accessed,
"export
CLASSPATH=/usr/local/JSDK2.0/lib/jsdk.jar:/usr/local/mm.mysql.jdbc-1.2b/mysq
l_comp.jar/" Needless to say, this must be modified according to where the
JSDK and mm.mysql driver are held.

step 2) use the proper url, user, password combination for the connection.
'jdbc:mysql://<yourdomain.com>/<dbName>?user=<userName>&password=<password>'
.

Then it all fell into place.

Cheers
Bruce
