connecting to mysql via localhost

Hi there

I use mysql on local computer, but have installed PC Bus Ethernet Card. When
i RUN   mysqladmin I have IP address different than 127.0.0.1. when I
configure for example PHP phpMyAdmin on user =root,  host the same as in
MYsqladmin I can't connect to Mysql server - acces not allowed for host
169.254.153.154 (the same what is in Mysql admin). I noticed that database
Mysql is not listed on my IP. What's wrong, help, please!

Thanks in advance

Open a dos session on your local computer, and then run ipconfig.  Try
the IP you see there.

I think you should be able to use 127.0.0.1 regardless of what your IP
address is as 127.0.0.1 is an internal loop that never gets processed to the
'outside'. Also using 'localhost' instead of an ip will work too.
