Hi! I had MySQL up and running. One glaring problem is that the hostname in the 'user' table of 'mysql' database show it as 'localhost'. I thought it would look better if I change it to '127.0.0.1' instead. I haven't got that connection to work with IP address, so mysql_connect() doesn't work. What is your thought on this? Thanks, Scott
