Re: mysql_connect does not connect

How do I sync an Oracle and MSSQL database on an AIX system remotely from Windows '95? p.s. I found this email address on the php website, which means I've been to the php website, therefore this is a php question. Don't you dare flame me. Jay Blanchard wrote:

Again, it is okay to say this once but it is not useful to keep insisting. I am smart enough to be aware of the possibility and

from others is not productive; it is more likley to polarize me

in the

opposite direction and get us to where we are now. It is the

emotional

commentary that is most unproductive. I try to explain

(unemotionally

and in a reasonable manner) that I don't need the additional

assertion

that I must try something and the response to that becomes

emotional.

Being obstinate and contrarian does nothing to help resolve your

problem.

Time for another: [quote from a Sam Hobbs post in reply to Jason Davidson]

It is my understanding that the firewall is not supposed to be relevant. I have not seen anything saying it is supposed to be.

If it

is true that it is not supposed to be relevant, then simply

saying it

is just causes confusion. If you had said that the firewall is

not

supposed to be relevant, but try disabling it anyway, then I

would say

that I am totally able to think like that too. It is reasonable

to try

things like that to diagnose a bug.

[quote] Would I be correct if I paraphrased the above as: The wrong way to get Sam Hobbs to try something that might help in solving his problem: [JD] The firewall might be blocking your attempts to connect to

mysql.

Try disabling it. [SH] Yeah and what makes you think that? I KNOW the firewal has

nothing

to do with it. Get real (and go away). The right way to get Sam Hobbs to try something that might help in solving his problem: [JD] The firewall has nothing to do with your problem. But try

disabling

it anyway. [SH] Yeah that sounds reasonable. Thanks, I'll try that. How silly is that? -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications
