Hi All,

I've got MySQL 5.0.21 running on Windows Server 2003, and php running
on Apache on a Linux box (Fedora Core 4).

Previously when the pages were running on an IIS server the connection
was succesful, now I get:

Can't connect to MySQL server on 'SERVER' (13)

I'm connecting using:

$db = mysql_connect("SERVER", "USER", "PASSWORD")
or die("Could not connect to database:
".mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("DATABASE", $db)
or die("Could not select database: ".mysql_error());

However from the linux box I can connect no problems using:
mysql --host=SERVER -u USER -p

Can anyone help point me in the right direction to solve this one?
Cheers
Dan
