>I simply want it to say "localhost".

You can't. Your machine has a name, myhpcomuter, and an ip address, 192.168.0.2.
It also has localhost 127.0.0.1

myhpcomputer and localhost are synonyms.

>but always get back the error "myhpcomputer is not the localhost" or words to that effect.

What is the exact error message?

You haven't got bind-address set in my.ini have you? If so, remove it, and restart mysql.

Good luck,
Barry.
