Hi again, thank you to all that helped me out with my last "query". I'm on a linux box now (YIPEEEEEE) I have created a database, and I have actually managed to load data in that I backed up from a win32 based mysql database (I'm toally pumped at this point), I set some permissions on the dir that contains the scripts and pages I need to interact with and am able to view HTML pages just fine, PHP seems to be reacting properly as well.
I get this though when I try to login though. Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Host 'dork.noconnect.net' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server in /path/to/html/includes/dbcon.php on line 2 //dbcon.php contains the connection information below Here is "how" I'm trying to login: <? $db = mysql_connect("ip address of server","username","password"); //I have tried the username and pass in a console as both root and a normal user and was able to manipulate the db. mysql_select_db("database name",$db); ?> Please help! _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
