[wplug] MySQL help?

[Scott Bourns]

Problem: I can log in from localhost, via telnet or terminal, and do
whatever I want to the tables I'm testing; but I can't access the MySQL
tables remotely and a simple PHP page with mysql_connect() returns:

Fatal error :  Call to undefined function:  mysql_connect() in
/var/www/html/mysqltest.php on line 2

Here is my status from MySQL:

mysql> status;

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
