Just to clarify, Michael is right on the money here. Connections to
MySQL on the members.evolt.org server are limited to the localhost for
obvious security reasons.
Also, its not a good idea to go banging away on the MySQL port. Certain
firewall scripts take that as a DOS attack and can block your entire
class C IP range from the server(i'm suprised todds email even got
through to the list server) :)
