I am trying to connect to mysql server which is installed on my home pc from another pc. I allowed all connection in mysql configuration. There's no firewall blocking on the pc I am trying to connect from. I used the command-
mysql -h Some.Host.IP -u SomeUser -p SomePassword
I am getting-
ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'Some.Host.IP' (10060)
I can connect through php!!
What's the problem? How do I solve it?
