This thread is leading into non-PHP territory (ie you're better off asking on 
the mysql list). Put simply, you can specify which port you want MySQL to 
use. However if the ISP only allows certain ports, eg SMTP, HTTP, _and_ 
you're already using those ports, then you're stuck up a creek.

Of course you can always ask your ISP to unblock that port. Why are _they_ 
firewalling _your_ network anyway?
