mysql odbc not connecting between 2 win7 pro systems
This is a new installation.
on a lan, 2 win7 pro desktops with 64bit os. One system has Wamp with mysql databases, essentially being used as a server. the other win7 runs ms access app with odbc to frontend the mysql. With mysql odbc installed on both, I'm still unable to connect. This same app connects odbc to a web server on the lan ok

3306 is open in the firewall, anywhere else?
I'm still getting the error "Connection failed [hy000]mysql odbc 5.1 host 'adminstation02' is not allowed to connect to this server"

Thanks again!!!
You will need to open port 3306 (default mysql port) for inbound connections on the WAMP Win machine.
