Simple question.
Here's what I have.
1 FreeBSD (unix) mysql server running off port 1521
1 Windows NT machine
& both behind the same firewall.
1st question. The command
mysql_connect("134.23.23.23:1521","root","bar");
should leave a entry in my firewall if I'm logging for a connection from any ip connecting to 1521? Why I ask is I'm getting nothing in my logs. SQL or security.
I've created a database locally and have no problem doing querries. Just having problems confirming it's NOT on the FreeBSD machine before I go tell my super smart admin its a firewall thing.
Thanks in advance.
A note: I telnet <ip> 1521 from my windows machince on the same switch and got connection refused. Expected. But when I did this with the server machine it said host not found. I'm thinking its a firewall problem. This is the right way of testing it remotely if you just want to see if the port is accessable from the server?
Thanks in advance.
Well, one more if you have time.
MyOBDC - I don't have to use this here. That's only if you want to use access?
