    PHP + MySQL Access Denied

    Hi,

    I keep getting an access denied error when trying
    to connect to mysql using user@localhost. I can
    connect just fine if I use the IP address instead
    (ie user@192.168.1. 5).

    I granted "user" privileges for everything so I don't
    see why that's the problem.

    Is this an issue where "localhost" is not getting resolved
    correctly?

    I'm on Linux, BTW.

    Thanks,

    Andrew

      seems /etc/hosts doesn't have an entry as in:

      localhost 192.168.1.5
