I have the mysql client installed
I get "Cant connect to mysql on 192.168.1.102"
I have root user with no password.
mysql -h 192.168.1.102 -u root
As far as the webserrver, I said that to show I can connect to my
apache just using an ip address, so I figure I should be able to
connect to mysql.
I can ping it.
I can connect to mysql from localhost.
I added % host.
Db table is empty
Host Table is empty
Anything else?

Thanks
