a newbie question(network question)

Hello,

Now, i have three computers at my home and i installed mysql to one of
the computers. I want to access mysql from other computers. However, i
couldn't access to that mysql server. When i tried to connect from
client, it gave that error(mysql error number 2003). What can i do for
solving that problem?

Best Regards,

Emrah Ayanoglu

P.S: I tried both of linux and windows, but i couldn't succeed.

You need also to esplicitly allow any external host to connect to your
sql server. This can be done putting couples of HOST, USER
in the "user" table of your "mysql" database:

On localhost:
mysql -u youruser -p -D mysql

then
insert into user (etccetera)
