My problem may be linked to the already known problem using
dbexpress and MySQL. But I meat it at an earlier stage.
I am not able to log on to a remote database server, neither
from the IDE or a compiled application. It works
perfectly when MySQL run locally, but not remote.
I have testet this behaviour from Win98 to Win98, and
from W2k to LINUX. Same responce. Locally it works, but not
remotely. Even tried different libmysql.dll's versions.
I do use the CLX's because I later on will port it to Kylix.
When I use mysql.exe client all works perfect, both locally
and remote.
Since some of you looks at least have something working,
what am I doing wrong?
Currently I have testet remotely against MySQL 3.23.40
on LINUX, 3.23.34a on Win 98. Locally it had all been
3.23.40

Bye the way, I have found the easiest way to get libmysql.dll
versions is to download the binary Windows distribution from
www.mysql.com, install it, and copy the needed DLL. Both install
and uninstall seems to work very good. Install an older
version and you can pick up a lower version of libmysql.dll too.

I am using Delphi 6 Pro and tried to do the same

Seems to be the old problem discussed earlier. D6, as a brand
new developement tool only support antique versions of databases. I can't believe it!
Sorry Borland, this isn't good enough.
It becomes even worse when I learned it is impossible
to tell when a fix will arrive. Please, do this better.
I am not working in a technical museum with out of date stuff.
