Hi all,

The IP-address has to be that of the SERVER, and - of course as Girvin
says -
access has to be granted to you on the server as mentioned. By the way -
I tend to use single apostrophies (') instead of ", if necessary on the
GRANT statements.
Regards and good luck


To add to what Girvin and Heinrich have written, you need to be aware that some Linux distribs forbid remote TCP access by default to a mysql server instance, because it is a potential remote attack point.

Look for the file my.cnf in /etc or /etc/mysql. In it, there should be a line that says "skip networking". Open up the file in your favorite text editor as superuser and comment out this line by putting a # as the very first character. Save and restart your mysql server instance. You should now be able to access your mysql server instance remotely via TCP.
