If the other machines are to connect to MySQL on the ME box, then
"localhost" isn't going to work - but you don't mean that, you have three
separate but almost identical installations, don't you?
Have all three machines been set up with the same userId and pswd, so
there's no issue there?
On each machine, and using that/those ID/pswds, can you connect to a DB/tbl
by using the command line client or MySQLControlCenter?
Rather than using DIE, what happens if you ask for the error number and
text?
Please advise,
