Guys,
I am not quiet sure what is happening but every time i try to connect to a
remote host it refers back to localhost.

$pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=171.16.23.44;dbname=test', 'user','password');

ERROR: Access denied for user 'user'@'localhost' (using password: YES) in
/var/www/html/text.php

Any clue as to WHY it keeps referring back to localhost when i clearly set the
host parameter to another server.
I checked the /etc/hosts records to see if there was a referral for that domain
back to it's self there is NOT.

Just a WAG from a guy who's never tried to do this.

Could the localhost in question actually be the server you are failing to connect to, and not your client machine? You are sure about your uid/pswd? dbname?
