Don't think this is the issue. Both variables are at default values of
28800 -- or 8 hours. Besides, wouldn't they have the same effect on my
laptop access as on the desktop? Again, using the console on the box
hosting MySQL, I get frequent server gone away errors. At the same time,
using the console on my laptop but accessing the very same MySQL server
over the network, I have no such problems. That seems precisely
bass-ackwards to me! ;-)
