After the failed connection attempt, there will be an error message you can get from mysql_error(). What is it? Also, rather than restart, will "mysqladmin flush-hosts" fix it as well? (We have to run the flush-hosts every hour in a cron job. Never bothered to figure out the root cause as this fixes things.) --steve- -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
