[horde] Horde Problem login

[WebWiz]

Sorry.  Further clarification (not based on memory this time but on an
actual perusal of my local.inc file)...

In my case, from local.inc:

/* To use an SQL database, uncomment and edit the following: */
class HordeDB extends DB_Sql {
  var $Host = 'demeter';
  var $Database = 'horde';
  var $User = '[obscured]';
  var $Password = '[obscured]';
  var $Port = '';

  function halt($msg) {
    // Printing here causes race condition trouble, so don't.
    file://printf("<b>Database error (HordeDB):</b> %s<br>\n", $msg);
  }
}

If I left $Host as

   var $Host = 'localhost';

(which is how it ships in Horde 1.2.4) then I would get the error that was
described.  ("Unable to log in as horde at localhost or some such thing).  When
I changed it to the version you see above, everything worked fine.

For some reason, I've never been able to get it to work properly with
'localhost'.  Probably a misconfiguration of my hosts file.

Eh?  If you mean something like this in defaults.php3:

$default->db_user_name                   = 'hordemgr at machine';

that's what the $default->db_server_name setting is for.  If you mean
something like this from the command line:

$ mysql -u hordemgr at machine -p ...

that's what the mysql "-h machine" argument is for.  I don't see how
"hordemgr at machine" would work in any context.
