Thanks, I meant "-P" of course.
I tried the same command but no connection can be established - mysql just "hangs". Telnet just brings

# telnet 127.0.0.1 8808
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.

No command gives any reply then.

I tested the newest mysqld but I don't even get it to work: "TCP/IP, --shared-memory, or --named-pipe should be configured on NT OS" although I set --port. Perhaps I have to set something inside Wine to make it work?
