MySQL Connect Problem

Hey guys, I've been developing my site on a dev server with MySQL locally installed. I've now moved the site to the production webserver and setup my databases on the production dbserver, which are two different machines. I have begin updating my connection variables and now I find I can't connect to the database from within PHP. MySQL is installed on the webserver, but not running as a daemon. If I run the mysql client and use the -h option, I can connect to the database with no problems from the webserver. I've tried manually specifying the port, tried hostname and ip address, made sure safe_mode is off and I'm not having any luck. I've checked in the phpinfo function and confirmed MySQL support is compiled in: MySQL Support enabled Active Persistent Links 0 Active Links 0 Client API version 4.0.16 MYSQL_MODULE_TYPE external MYSQL_SOCKET /tmp/mysql.sock MYSQL_INCLUDE -I/usr/local/mysql/include MYSQL_LIBS -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient Directive Local Value Master Value mysql.allow_persistent On On mysql.connect_timeout 60 60 mysql.default_host no value no value mysql.default_password no value no value mysql.default_port no value no value mysql.default_socket no value no value mysql.default_user no value no value mysql.max_links Unlimited Unlimited mysql.max_persistent Unlimited Unlimited mysql.trace_mode Off Off Can anyone give me ideas to get this working? I must admit, I'm stumped. Here's the mysql_error: Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.1.44' From the webserver error log: php4_execute reports: PHP Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.1.44' (2) Thanks, Cameron
