Try at least one of them: - turn on MySQL server debugging so you can see whats going on and diagnose the problem - turn on 'enough' Wine tracing to see what's going on and diagnose the problem. You probably don't want +all tracing but somebody who knows more than me about Wine debugging can probably advise you whats best. I suggest you try server debugging first. - try installing and running the Linux version of MySQL. This will at least give you a few more combinations to try, e.g. you should be able to talk to mysqld.exe from the Linux mysql client and vice versa, but be sure you're using a TCP/IP connection or it won't work - ask about this problem on the MySQL Community support forums but don't be surprised of they say you should try using the Linux server. - you can also use Wireshark to see what, if anything, is being sent over the TCP/IP connection. It has a nice Gnome graphical front end, which is probably a separate package from Wireshark itself: RH packages them separately Martin
