Hi. You can use the IP address too, but the "localhost" will works fine in almost all server. Maybe is better you talk with the server's sysop/administrator and ask for how to confg. your php script. Like I sad before, ALMOST all server acepts the host server as localhost, than check your ID and PASS.
