Re: MyODBC for XP connects Linux MySQL Server

[Bernard LEFEUVRE]

Hello, it'easy to realize.

1 - On server Linux :

    in my.cnf file verify you have invalidated the line skip-networking

    -> #skip-networking

2 - Configure ODBC :
    - Data Source Name       The local name you want for your Database
    - Description                   Just a comment
    - Server                          Name or IP adress of the Linux server
    - User                             The name of the user who access
the Database
    - Password                      Password   for the user
    - Database                      The name of the MySql Database on
the server

    Press "Test" button permit you to verify your settings.
