Strange database location / IP issue when trying to install

Hello,

Whenever I go to install.php and fill in the IP address of where the database is located, it always tries a local address, regardless of what I use.
For instance if I enter, 192.168.1.102, it will try 192.168.1.101 instead. This is very odd.

I cannot get it installed because the database is not on the same server as the web site.
I am using MySQL 4.x, with PHP 4.3.16 (or something like that)

Anyone have any suggestions?

are those machines both on your LAN (i.e. are you self-hosted)? This might be related to NAT - your IP addresses might not be "visible" from one server to the other.
