Guest book install

I am new to web sites. Finaly I have managed to design my own website using frontpage. Huh, what an effort !!!!!!! Web can be cruel !!!!!!

I am having trouble with installing a good guest book. After plenty of trial and error I decied to download ADVANCED GUESTBOOK 2.3.1 from this site.

I could not find the readme text in the download. So looked at someone's site using this guestbook. Figured it that I need to upload all the files I downloaded in to my "public htm" folder.

So I uploaded them into my 'public htm'. Now its there. But I am not able to access it.

When I try this address -

http://www.kentheteaman.com/Advanced%20guestbook%202.3.1/

I get this following errer message

Warning: mysql_connect(): Unknown MySQL Server Host 'dominNET.net' (1) in /home/kenthete/public_html/Advanced guestbook 2.3.1/lib/mysql.class.php on line 30
Connection Error

I tried to change the details of "localhost", "user" , "password" and "database" names in the CONNECT.PHP file using notepad.

But still the same problem.

I WOULD APPRECIATE IF SOMEONE CAN HELP ME. I AM FED UP AT THIS STAGE.

THANKS A LOT IN ADVANCE.

Does the top part of your config php file look anything like this? And did you set up a database?

$GB_DB["dbName"] = "database name here";
$GB_DB["host"] = "localhost";
$GB_DB["user"] = "user here";
$GB_DB["pass"] = "password here";
