DB access failure...

I have a mySQL DB running on an NT server. I just re-installed it (long story) and everything seems to be fine, except DB access. // Connectivity data $db_engine = 'mysql'; $db_host = 'db.myserver.net'; $db_user = 'test'; $db_pass = 'test'; $db_name = 'test'; // Data Source Name: This is the universal connection string $dsn = "$db_engine://$db_user:$db_pass@$db_host/$db_name"; // DB::connect will return a PEAR DB object on success // or an PEAR DB Error object on error $objDB = DB::connect($dsn); I get this... DB Error: connect failed Now, if I change $db_host to the machine IP, it works fine. Anyone have any ideas what I did work, or what I can set to make the machine name work again? Thanks Walter
