Hi:
I want to connect my computer from a different computer on
which MySQL is running in an ethernet network (local area network).That
means that I don t want to use the localhost hostname.
What is the hostname in the command ?:
GRANT privileges ON database.* TO 'username'@'hostname' IDENTIFIED BY
'password'.
Please give a specific example.
I have installed MySQL (on Windows) with the option :root access from
a remote machine enabled.

Thank you in advance.

The hostname would be the IP address of the client machine connecting.
