Connection to a database on remote server
Posted by: Michael Loney

I have a Windows PC and a Linux Laptop on my local network, both running a MySQL Server and Client.

I want to access a database on the Linux Server from a front end (ooBase) running on the Windows PC, and sometimes vice versa, and sometime from my iPad.

Is this possible, and if so, what is needed to allow this to happen?

At present, whenever I try to connect to a database on the linux server from either the iPad or the Windows PC I get (the same) communication error!


Any guidance would be appreciated.
