Also, I created a database user with password for accessing the MySQL server through PHP. When configuring MySQL to 'skip-networking' (only useful when PHP/Apache runs on the same machine like the DB), then it seems not to be possible to make an successful mysql_connect("localhost", "user", "pw"); I'm only able to get a connect with a simple mysql_connect()-call. When enabling networking for MySQL, I've to give the host/user/pw. I havn't found a way to diable networking and using the DB with user/pw. This is odd ... http://www.php.net/manual/de/function.mysql-connect.php
