[2003] How can you connect to a MySQL DB behind proxy?

(Also posted under Database Development)

I have a MySQL db that I can connect to directly using my program in VB.Net 2K3, the problem is, when I'm behind a proxy, I cannot connect to my MySQL DB successfully.

Any ideas?

Click on the database connection at my signature, where you get the different connection string for the database. :wave:

Thanks shakti, but that's where I also got my connection string. I am using MySQL Connector.

I am able to connect to my MySQL DB if I am directly connected to the internet. But when I am behind proxy, I couldn't get through....

Tell Where your database is located.

I don't know if I already solved it but when I tried using the IP address as host in my connection string, I got to connect to my MySQL DB through proxy.

Hmm, any insights?
