Not Localhost

[Mel]

Hi,

 

I'm connecting to and using a mysql db using localhost successfully.

 

I want to attach to the same db from a different domain (on the same server/reseller account)

 

I set up a new access host (mysql.myawesomedomain.com), but my php complains:

 

Warning: mysql_connect(): Unknown MySQL Server Host 'mysql.myawesomedomain.com' (25) in *********** on line 12

Could not connect

 

What steps am I missing?

 

thanks!

Don't know if this will help a lot, but when using MyODBC to connect an Access db from my PC to a MySQL db on my hosting space, I use the IP address for the host. Just plain IP address.
