I just installed CentOS 5 and I need to connect to a MySQL server on
another box. I can do it from the command line but not from PHP. These
old scripts use PEAR DB. Thus:

mysql -utestuser -psecret -hinterps2 test

Your MySQL connection id is 20491 to server version: 5.0.17-standard-log
mysql>

But:
<?php
require 'DB.php';
$DSN = "mysqli://testuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/test" ;
$db = DB::connect($DSN);

if (PEAR::isError($db)) {
   echo $db->getDebugInfo();
} else {
   echo "alleluyah\n" ;
}

Output:

[nativecode=Can't connect to MySQL server on 'interps2' (13)] **
mysqli://testuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/test

I wish to hell it would tell me why not. Anyone have any ideas where
to look for more information?

Thanks,
