I'm having a problem with PHP/MySQL - mysql command

	mysql_pconnect("localhost:3306","username","password")

doesn't work, while

	mysql_pconnect("127.0.0.1:3306","boxcar","down1934")

does.  nslookup shows 

	nslookup localhost

		Server:  nexus.berkshire.net
		Address:  206.72.196.10

		Name:    localhost.berkshire.net
		Address:  127.0.0.1

any ideas?

Mike
