Connecting over a network to mysql on Linux

[Mellegem]

Hi, I've successully setup mysql on a Debian 3 box and I can't connect over the LAN to it.
To connect to another mysql database on a Windows ME computer I use
mysql -h 192.168.0.157
and it works fine. But the identical command on to my Linux box
mysql -h 192.168.0.2
I get the error below.

ERROR 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.0.2' (111)
Any Ideas
