(Ignore previous message with same title.) I'm having difficulty connecting remotely to my database. In fact, while typing this message a found another problem: I can't even connect to my database from the same machine if I specify the host IP address on the command line! I think they are part of the same problem...

This works: mysql --user=me dbname This doesn't: mysql --host=ip_address --user=me dbname (From same machine)

SELECT host, user, password FROM dbname WHERE user='me';

+------+---------------|----------+ | host | user | password | +------+---------------|----------+ | % + me | | +------+---------------|----------+

Thanks, -John
