mysql_connect : Here OUTSIDE connection.

Paris,
Le 30 08 MMVII,

Hi,

I have a problem to connect to MYSQL from one server to another
server.

In other words, On server A, I have my PHP files, and on server B, I
have MySQL installed.
Localhost is fine, but an I.P. as a host lead to an error : Warning:
mysql_connect(): Can't connect to MySQL server on '207

Here is what I got :

1) CONFIG.PHP
$dbtype = "mysql"; ##Defines Database type
$dbhost = "207.36.15.13:3306"; ##Your host
$dbuname = "maincontheaderbox"; ##Database Name
$dbpasswd = "bobyken"; ##Database Password
$dbase = "z_extras";
maincontheaderbox is the root user getting all previleges.

Comment : I mentioned PORT 3306. Not sure at all of that port (from
OVH french.hosting services)

2) my.cnf MYSQL

I ensured that my.cnf does not forbid outside mysql connections.
skip-networking.

3) Doc

- http://fr.php.net/mysql_connect

$db_url = 'mysql://My_Account_Name(A)_username:password@localhost/
My_Account_Name(A)_databaseName';

Many thanks for your help from your knowledge and experience.

Do not multi-post. Cross-post if you must but don't multi post
It waste's people's time.
