D'oh! That does it. Thanks Robby.
Blindly copy'n'paste-ing a line with the wrong netmask did NOT help!

But while I'm here - how does PHP connect? If rejecting connections
from the local machine and from 127.0.0.1 didn't do the trick, why not?
(Or is that getting into network issues and I needed the host's IP
address?)

thanks again
