MySQL and Windows9x ODBC Problem

I am having a strange problem with the ODBC driver for MySQL under Windows98. I am using myodbc-2.50.29-win95.<br>
<br>
If I start mysql with 'mysqld -Sg' I can access the SQL tables from a Windows98 computer fine. The problem is that no matter what user/host combo I enter into the user database on MySQL I cannot connect (always get 'access denied') when running the Daemon under normal operation.<br>
<br>
The REALLY strange thing is that the access denied message occurs (I think) primarily because the ODBC driver is not sending my IP address (it just says 'craig@ access denied' when it should say 'craig@192.168.1.1 access denied').<br>
<br>
I have used the '%' wildcard in the host field but that doesn't do any good. Any ideas on this?<br>
<br>
Thank You,<br>
