Question

Thanks in advance.

I have Installed WAMP Server on System 4(192.168.1.104). I can Connect MySql DB from System 4 Local host.

//Code:
if (!mysql_connect('localhost','root', '')){
    die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}

The Connection is working Fine.

Now i am trying to Connect System 4 Database From Another Machine.

//Code:
if (!mysql_connect('192.168.1.104','root', '')){
    die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}

i am receiving This Error in Browser

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Host 'Laptop' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server in D:\xampp\htdocs\bigben_new\testDB.php on line 7 Could not connect: Host 'Laptop' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server

Please Give a solution. and thanks in Advance.
