→Connecting to the Database Server
</pre>
The reason for this is that the specified user has not be provisioned been granted permission to access the database server from a remote system. This problem can be resolved on the server using the MySQL Administrator. Simply launch the MySQL Administrator tool on the system hosting the database server, select the ''User Administration'' option and select the required user from the list of users in the bottom left hand corner of the window. Once selected, click with the right mouse button on the user name and select ''Add Host''. In the resulting ''Add Host'' dialog add the host name or IP address of the remote host to which you wish to allow connections and click on ''OK''. Once the user has the appropriate privileges to connect from the specified host it should be possible to connect the MySQL Administrator client to the database server.
