Re[2]: mysql_ping() problem

[BAUMEISTER Alexandre]

Bonjour Paul,

PD> It wasn't clear to me from the original posting (or I've forgotten),

PD> - Are you changing the gateway after you've already established the MySQL

  Yes.

PD> - Under the circumstances you describe, does the UNIX ping command work?

  Yes.

  But  mysql_ping()  hangs  and  returns  only  if  I  get back to the
  previous  gateway  (the  one  which was used when the connection was
  established).

  Alex.
