Re: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'::ffff:192.168.68.60' (using password: YES)

Here's what I get on my server. Notice both ip address, and host name.

mysql> select user,host from user;
+------------+-----------+
| user | host |
+------------+-----------+
| root | 127.0.0.1 |
| root | localhost |
+------------+-----------+
2 rows in set (0.06 sec)

Can you add your user to mysql using the hostname, as well as the ip address?

The reference manual shows adding users using the host.domain rather than ip address.

Good Luck.
Barry.
