[ROOT] can't get to MySQL server?

Hi,

I'm using the following in my code:

TSQLServer* serv =
     TSQLServer::Connect("mysql://serverpc.mydomain.com/taq",
			"myusername","mypassword");

Although I can reach the database from the Linux command line with

      mysql -h serverpc.mydomain.com -myusername -p

the code using TSQLServer gives me an error:

Error in <TMySQLServer::TMySQLServer>: connection to database taq on 
serverpc.mydomain.com failed (error: Unknown MySQL Server Host 
'serverpc.mydomain.com' (1))
Error in <TMySQLServer::Query>: not connected

Has anybody seen anything like this before?  As a possible hint, despite 
the documentation to the contrary, the pointer "serv" does NOT return 0. 
  (Forgive me for concealing the actual name of the serverpc with the 
generic substitute name.)

	- John
