Hi All

I am trying to connect to a MySQL data base using OpenOffice with the files
located in a second computer networked to the first by a router. NFS is not
installed nor is somba.

The address of the second computer is 192.168.1.251.
The second computer hass the database located at:
/mnt/System_Data/My_DataBase/OpenOffice

When I attempt to do a setup I get the following appearing in the URL window:
sdbc:MSQL:jdbc
<host><3306>/<DBNAME>

I am assuming that <host> is 192.168.1.251
and I assume that
<DBNAME> is /mnt/System_Data/My_DataBase/OpenOffice
but
What does <3306> mean?

Thanks

Frank
