I'm losing track here -- are you saying you can't connect to another machine running MySQL 3.x from PHP but you can from the mysql command line client? So this behavior is verified against both a MySQL 3.x and 4.x server? If so I agree, getting the router / firewall out of your way is a good idea, though why it would matter if you can open a socket connection, I don't know. > > Note that the standard MySQL extension carries this note: > > > > This MySQL extension will not work with MySQL versions greater > > than 4.1.0.

Is that not the case? I'm not at all clear on that. For one thing it depends if the various pieces were built dynamic or static. I would not make this assumption. I thought you said the web server had MySQL 3.23 on it -- do you also have a MySQL 4 client there? -- Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
