"the configuration of mysql4.1.13 (mysql4.1.12a) allows root user to be accessed from remote computers.."

Is that a question or a statement?

You might need to set up a user to be able to connect, the user names in MySQL have a computer name attached as in root@localhost so you either need to give specific user names for each PC or just use root@% to allow any PC to connect as root.

To connect from another pc just use -h option with the pcname or I.P. address when starting the server

mysql -h 192.168.1.100 -u root
