	The mysql on your backend box needs to be setup 
so that it is visible on your frontend machines. Some
of the distros setup mysql so that it is only visible
to the box it is running on (for security).

/etc/mysql/my.cnf

#
# Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on
# localhost which is more compatible and is not less secure.
#bind-address           = 127.0.0.1
bind-address            = 192.168.1.12
