I have an other question regarding mysql(4.09-gamma).
(i tried mysql 3.23 but this gives the same error)

I get the message when i try 'mysqladmin version' :
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)'
Check that mysqld is running on localhost and that the port is 3306.
You can check this by doing 'telnet localhost 3306'

It seems that localhost is not defined the right way on my system. So I tried creating a 'hosts' file in the windows dir with in it '127.0.0.1 localhost'. This does not change anything.

I also cannot bind (in the my.ini file in the windows dir) to the machines ip address (my example '10.1.1.110')

What am i doing wrong. When I try 'telnet 10.1.1.110 3306' I get some weird ascii signs but ik comes trough. pressing enter twice gives the message 'wrong handshake'.

What is wrong here?

Please... any help is very welcome.

Henk.

    Stupid thought, but you have started MySQL, right?

      Yes I did. I tried mysqld-nt and mysql-max-nt
      Working in win2k pro this should do the trick.

      I also connect to the database via phpMyAdmin 2.3.3pl1. I can browse/add/delete the database.

      I hope this answers your question.
