Connect Error 1045 using mysqli

[Sid Childers]

Hi,

I've created the following PHP code block and am trying to run it on my PC and attempting to connect to MySQL on a remote FreeBSD server. When I run this from my PC, I receive connect error 1045 Access denied for 'dbuser'@'mydomain' (using password YES). I am able to login to mysql using dbuser via shell access.

<?php
/* Set Variables */
$host="myhostip";
$db="dbname";
$username="dbuser";
$pass="mypass";

/* Attempt to connect */
$mysqli=new mysqli($host,$username,$pass,$db);
if (mysqli_connect_error()){
die('Connect Error (' . mysqli_connect_errno() . ') '
. mysqli_connect_error());
echo 'Success... ' . $mysqli->host_info . "\n";

$mysqli->close();

}
?>

Can anyone suggest what I need to check to rectify this problem? dbuser has been granted database priviliges from any host (using '%' on grant table).

Thanks,
Sid
