It sounds like the only problem is that you can't connect tot he mysql server.

Are you sure that your hosting company has mysql running on the same machine as the web server on port 3306?

If you are not absolutely sure, you might want to talk to the hosting company to find out where their mysql server is running and on what port.

You could also try 127.0.0.1 as the server... a badly misconfigured (or strangly configured) machine could actually not be able to resolve localhost.
