    I try to connect to a remote MySQL server :

           db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");
           db.setHostName("BUCS276b\\I0001 ");//name of a remote desktop from my internal network
           db.setDatabaseName("Test_DB");
           db.setUserName("usr");
           db.setPassword("test");
    

    But i get :

    QSqlError("2005", "QMYSQL: Unable to connect", "Unknown MySQL server host 'BUCS276b\\I0001' (2)")Connexion FAILED.
    //Aditional info :
    Disponible Drivers  ("QSQLITE", "QMYSQL", "QMYSQL3", "QODBC", "QODBC3", "QPSQL", "QPSQL7")
    Functional drivers(QMYSQL):  true
    number of error:  2005
    database error:  "Unknown MySQL server host 'BUCS276b\\I0001' (2)"
    driver error:  "QMYSQL: Unable to connect"
    type erreur:  1
    

    The server is ok , it works if i connect from microsoft sql server manager with same host name .

      "BUCS276b\I0001 "

      This is for sure no hostname...

          of a remote desktop(host)

          So please specify the hostname or ip address.
