and, FWIW, no database backend for internet stuffings should ever be accessed on 
localhost... database servers should reside on a backend server separate from 
the frontend server(s)... from a security standpoint, running a database server 
on the same machine as the frontend is just very very very bad juju that could 
lead to a security nightmare :?
