Setting up mysql for use on a local area network

Question

I need to set up mysql for use by 3-4 computers in a local area network.  I can't find a good reference on the subject.  Also, it will need to be accessed through c# on these computers - this is as simple as putting the ip address in the connection string, right?

Answer 1

Hello patrick,

You need to setup DSN's (Data Source Names) on each machine, this can be done programatically but you do need to have the ODBC Drivers or the MySqlConnector dlls on those machines.
