* Try add to /etc/hosts the name and ip of DB is located >> I'm using Windows 2000.
In Windows2000 make the same changes in winnt/system32/drivers/etc/hosts. If it connects the first time and every time thereafter that you recreate the connection it should not be anything to do with resolving the name of the computer with the db. If the db is on a system other than the one with the web server than you should check the network/network cards for errors. The connection may be dropping because of communication. If it is on the same box then some other memory resident program etc may be causing the connection to drop. Refer to my previous post in re. to stopping services etc. * MySQL * Larry S.
