[Serusers] serweb, getting it working

[Ticknor.Scott at ic.gc.ca]

hi, first post here after reading thru the archives and whatnot.
im a ser-n00b, so go easy. i installed from source with the -all option for
all modules. everything is where it should be, i think.
basically, i am getting MySQL errors when trying to access serweb.
--
Warning: Access denied for user: 'ser at Lima' (Using password: YES) in
/var/www/html/phplib/db_mysql.inc on line 73
Database error: pconnect(Lima, ser, $Password) failed.
MySQL Error: ()
Session halted.
--

the ser db is created, along with a 'ser' user and the default heslo passwd.
i used phpMyAdmin to grant ser full permissions over the ser db. i suspected
the problem is the appending of @Lima to the user name was problematic, so i
created a 'ser at Lima' user and gave it permissions for the ser db as well.
still no luck. 
here are some relevant bits from ser.cfg. if you need me to post logs, other
config files, let me know. thanks for reading!
