That did it!  I thought I had tried that, but apparently not.  I guess 
the only reason I was getting the host, user and database correctly 
output from pdbedit was because it is the default values, and it wasnt 
actually getting read from the conf file.

Sorry about hijacking this thread too.  Accidental.

thanks
