Newbie with connect error ("can't connect")

I don't think I know how to format the entries in the 'Session Manager' dialog. I have Network type = "TCP/IP", Hostname/IP = "sufipaths.net", username and password are correct, Port = "3306", database name is correct.

I get 'SQL error (2003): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'sufipaths.net' (10061)

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong ??

Thanks -- Howard Ballinger

Could be you're doing nothing wrong but the server may block connections from outside his local network. Or you have a typo in the servername. Try to ping sufipaths.net.
