Typically it's done like:
$db = mysql_connect('localhost','username','password');
The MySQL database detects what host you're connecting from, and appends
that to your username. I'm not sure if it's possible to specify an
alternate host.
So if both PHP and MySQL are on the same machine, and you connect to the
MySQL server as 'username', MySQL will see you as 'username@localhost'.
