Howdy- im trying to install ikonboard on mySQL. I had one running smoothly on DBM untill somehow all my members got deleted, so i backed it up with all the posts, and re-installed it (re-uploaded everything) and re-ran the installer.cgi script to install. I gave it all my mySQL info- database name, username, pass, ip to server, and some guy on the irc channel told me the default port was 3306. Well, when installation was completed it gave me this error when i tried to run the board:

Ikonboard has exited with the following error:
Can't connect to mySQL database. Access denied for user: 'clansotb@66.152.98.112' (Using password: YES)
This error was reported at: Sources/iDatabase/Driver/mySQL.pm line 55, line 64.

The first problem I notice is that the ip listed there is different than the one i gave it. my boardinfo.cgi database settings are as follows:

'DB_DIR' => q!/www/k/kraigory/cgi-bin/ikonboard/Database/!,
'DB_DRIVER' => q!mySQL!,
'DB_IP' => q!66.152.97.70!,
'DB_NAME' => q!clansotb!,
'DB_PASS' => q!**correctpassisreallyhere**!,
'DB_PORT' => q!3306!,
'DB_PREFIX' => q!ib_!,
'DB_USER' => q!clansotb!,

I have double-checked EVERYTHING and cannot find an error. I have tried using 'localhost' as the ip, tried it without an ip, tried it without a port, nothing will work.

Can someone help me?!?!?!
