[rt-users] Install problem using a db server on a different host

[Michael Silver]

Hello,

Thank you! That solved the problem. I don't know how I missed the
--with-db-rt-host variable, but I removed everything I had done (except
perl modules - I'm not that stupid!) and started with the configure
statement again - this time using the above variable. Everything went
tickety-boo. The only thing I can think of is that I didn't read closely
enough and assumed I had the db host setting taken care of with the
--with-db-host. Duh.

At any rate, thank you for the help and thanks to Best Practical for a
wonderful product.

Michael
