fatal error undefined call to mysql_connect

Hi all, I have installed my php scripts on a new server (linux) and when attempting to run them I get this error. Is this error a configuration issue in my PHP.ini file or is it a user issue with mysql and connecting to the database? thanks in advance Angelo -------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer This e-mail transmission contains confidential information, which is the property of the sender.
