MySQL Remote Access

[Matt.J]

Hi,


How would I go about accessing my MySQL database via my mysql client here at home?

I've attempted to access it, but am continuously denied, e.g;

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\Matt>mysql -hwww.x10hosting.com -umattj_matt -p
Enter password: ******
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'mattj_matt'@'202.172.103.146' (using
password: YES)

C:\Documents and Settings\Matt>

My address has been added to the "remote access" list, and I do indeed have a static WAN IP.

(The user "matt" has been created, and is linked to a database)


Thanks,

Matt.

Hi,

Due to abuse on the free accounts remote access to the databases is disabled.

You can use PHPMyAdmin in the MySQL section of your cPanel for most admin tasks.
