The issue appears to have been between PHP and mysql - re 
authentication.  The PHP client does not yet use the new password format 
coming with mysql-4.x servers.  I guess there's something to be said for 
walking away when frustrated.

SELinux was never fully identified as the "source" of the problems - 
especially as i wasn't getting any messages all while i was trying that.

Thanx guys.
