Does that mean *TWO DIFFERENT MACHINES*?
Many hosts do not permit database access from arbitrary hosts
for "security reasons".

If you are trying to open a connection to two different machines,
shouldn't one of the hostnames NOT be 'localhost'? Also, the second
argument to mysql_connect is a username, NOT a database name,
although they might coincidentally be the same.

How do you know it failed?

What was the error message?
