mysql network connection problem

[Hr. RJH Verhagen]

I try to make a connection to a mysql database under hp-ux 10.20 and 11.00.
I extracted the binary file mysql from mysql-3.23.53-hp-hpux10.20-hppa1.1.tar.gz for hp-ux 10.20 and mysql-3.23.53-hp-hpux11.00-hppa2.0n.tar.gz for hp-ux 11.00 (downloaded form www.mysql.com).
When I try to make a network connection:
./mysql ???h xxxx ???u user ???ppass
on the hp-ux 11.00 computer it works but under hp-ux 10.20 I get the following error:

ERROR 2005: unknown MySQL Server Host ???xxxx??? (0)

Does anybody know why it doesn???t work under hpux 10.20?
The computer name xxxx can be resolved on the hpux 11 and hpux 10.20 computer.

Thanks,
Robert Verhagen.

Hi,

In the config file my.cnf, check and comment the line "skip-networking" in the section mysqld.
