Hi All,

anyone had success configuring XAMPP's phpmyadmin to point to another host other than localhost, on windows..? I have successfully installed apache/mysql/php/phpmyadmin on a linux box, all seperately installed, and set it up to point to a linux mysql server, but, when making what I thought were the right changes, and granting permissions on the mysql server, I keep getting access problems on the win2kpro client box. The client is not even reaching the server, as no acknowledgement of any attempts in the firewall alerts on the server. I changed the host/user/password settings in the config file to reflect the server box.

host=192.168.0.12(server ip)
user=pma(this was the user that showed up as not allowed b4 granting it access in mysql)
password=correct password

I made sure pma@192.168.0.9(client ip) has permission to access the mysql database on the server.
