Can't remotely connect to MySQL database
Hi,
I am trying to connect to a MySQL database remotely.
I have two ubuntu machines 192.168.0.3 (ubuntu 8.10) and 192.168.0.6 (ubuntu 8.04). I have edited each of their /etc/mysql/my.cnf and changed them to include bind-address = 192.168.0.3 and bind-address = 192.168.0.6 respectively. Neither has the line skip-networking.
I have logged into mysql locally on each machine and entered the following command:
grant all on mythconverg.* to 'mythtv'@'%' identified by 'mythtv';
When I run
mysql -u mythtv -h 192.168.0.3 -p
on the 192.168.0.6 machine I get the following error:
glen@glen-desktop:~$ mysql -u mythtv -h 192.168.0.3 -p
Enter password:
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.0.3' (113)
When I run
mysql -u mythtv -h 192.168.0.6 -p
on the 192.168.0.6 machine I get the following error:
glen@glen-desktop:~$ mysql -u mythtv -h 192.168.0.6 -p
Enter password:
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.0.6' (111)
