Dear All

I have installed MySQL 5 on Ubuntu 10.04 Server. It is working fine but
when I try to access MySQL through any other client using ODBC connector, i=
t
says access is denied for user root.

It looks that MySQL remote access is blocked. Can someone suggest me which
variable to add or change in my.cnf file? or I have to change something els=
e
so that I can access MySQL databases from other computers using ODBC
