Connect fail: The requested name is valid, but no data (...)

When trying to set up MySQL Connection via HTTP Tunnel, I get following error:

Can't connect to MySQL server on 'server-name' (10061):
The requested name is valid, but no data of the requested type was found

Additional information: the server I am trying to connect to does not allow database enumeration (so I've typed database name, instead of picking it from combo box).
Can you provide me with any solution to this?

Please check that the port specified in your connection string is the same one which is used by the MySQL server, and that you are able to connect to the server by some standard tool.

If the problem persists, please specify (at least roughly) the connection string you are using.

Problem was solved by using numeric IP address instead of host name.
