Thanks for your help everyone! After getting the placement of php_mssql.dll right and puzzling over the fact that I had in fact edited php.ini correctly... I discovered that PHP was not looking at C:\php\php.ini. Rather, somehow it was looking at C:\Windows\php.ini. Anyway, now all is well.

That's what I thought. so I tried this test using PHP functions... mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass) I get this... Warning: mysql_connect(): Unknown MySQL Server Host 'db.torres.ws' So, at least now I know it is a connection issue, not a id/password issue. > If your IP address is not going to change over time then for practical > purposes there will be no difference whether you connect using IP address > or hostname.
