Hi, I am trying to set up phpbb on a Winnt 4sp6a server with php4 installed. I also have MySQL 3.2.X installed on the same box. I keep getting the error that "could not connect to the database". No matter what I try. I have created a databaes named "phpbb2". I created a dsn for it called "phpbb". No matter what I enter in the host/dsn box I get the same error. I have tried just the dsn, just the host, combinations of the host/dsn using names and ip addresses. I don't know what I'm missing. Thanks for any suggestions. Ken.
