What I actually really want to do is to access my MySQL database running on Linux from C# programs running on Windows on the same network.
As a first step, I am simply trying to connect to my MySQL database on Linux computer A from another Linux computer B using the mysql console program from a shell window like this:
mysql -h 10.0.1.130 -u username
The IP address of the computer A is 10.0.1.130. For some reason I seem to be missing something in the configuration because I get this error:
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '10.0.1.130' (113)
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Note that I do not wish to use something like phpadmin; the point of this excersize is to be able to write Windows applications to access the database to display certain views to users.
Many thanks!
