Description:
When conenction to a remote db(4.1) server MySQL Administrator(1.1.3) mixes up the settings with the local db server. It displays path to local binary instead of remote. It displays the service status for the local instance instead of the remote...and so on.

How to repeat:
Just connect to a remote db server using MySQL Administrator and the problem will appear.

That is the expected behavior by design, those information
showed for localhost.

Is there any way to get round it? Because it is very disturbing because you just can't use the tool like you would. Why have you designed it that way? What would be the use of that?
