I have already done the following on the SQL linux machine:1. Grant rights to a username:grant all privileges on *.* to remoteuser@192.168.1.100 identified by "userpassword";2. edit my.cnfand comment out the bind-address line3. restart your MySQL serverthen, when I go back to my Vista machine running SQL management studio I try to connect with:Server type: Database EngineServer name: 192.168.1.97(Linux)Authentication: SQL AuthenticationUser Name: rootPassword: ********and I get a connection error:An error has occured while establishing a connection to the server. (Provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 -Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error:53)Can anyone please point me in the right direction or advice? Thank you |
