I've just started try to do some programming on a Linux based system, after years of working in WinDoze.
One of the first hurdles I'm facing is that the current project requires accessing a remote MySql server (remote, but on the same LAN).
I'm assuming its possible to set up some sort of ODBC service, but for the life of me I can't find out the right way to do this. Has anyone got any hints please?
I'm using NetBeans or KDevelop, as my programming environment, it that affects anything :P
